Love is that invisible something
which lies in parallel stratas and
permeates the universe. Love is
everywhere. 1t begins with love of
God and extends down to and in
GLIDING love of self. Our every act
good or bad-is prompted by love
of something. But as the timber
line marks a dividing place in the
altitude of mountains, 50 too is there
in every life place where TRUE
love-the mode of living which
knows as wages no coin save that
minted in the joy of service, devo-
ton and sacrifce-begins, and baser
love ceases to exist. Could we

mates from God because God is
love- and whatever is Godlike is

love-"
In its restricted sense or as we
usually think of love, it is the state
of mind that one individual has for
another. Unlike what many think,
love in its true meaning is free from
lust or jealousy. 1t is that quality
in US that causes US to 60 through
everything for the one we love no
matter what the result to us. If true
love it never dies and only gives
back sense of pleasure to the one
who gives it.
