Many people have a misunderstanding about the nature of love. Love is not a hormone response to the sexuality of another. Nor is it the momentary expansion of one s heart. Love is beyond the physical and is eternal in its nature. All momentary experiences are only glimpse of love, which leave us longing to live in its everlasting presence.
All pain is the separation that occurs because of the closing of our hearts to love.
Our western society has lost its connection to love and forgotten how to live in the love. Materialism and desire, competition and success have replaced the deeper longings of our hearts. Even spirituality has become a goal and an object of desire as we long for more and more, higher and higher, greater and greater. The answer must be found in love itself. For it is only love that embraces all things, only love that heals at the deepest level of our beings, and only love that will stop the pillaging of our planet and let it return to its natural state of healing.
