Being In Love
Love is a Force that moves through the heart. It is a Force so overwhelming and powerful that it quickens the pulse, sends blood rushing faster, spinning wildly in the center, generating heat, and that heat converts into the Divine Fire of Love itself … a Fire to burn away all that is not Love.
Love is a longing. It is a deep craving in the heart to dissolve into the object of its affection, to become the Fire, and to breathe that Fire deep into the belly, incinerating all that is no longer necessary. This is the Fire that transforms.
In Love, we resonate with our object of Love, and that object of Love becomes Love itself. It is Love because we recognize Love within it. It becomes a mirror of Love staring into the eyes of Love. And we dote on our object of affection. We are devoted to it. We adore it. We express our feelings of adoration. We value the other. The other becomes important, extremely important and cherished, even more than we value and cherish our own self. In doing so, we honor the Love that we find in the Beloved.
Love uplifts. Love supports. Love encourages. Love is gentle. Love is kind. Love is True.
It takes courage to Love. It takes courage to send our hearts out in space, like a lone star wavering in the sky, shining its own Light, bright. And not everyone will see that Light. Not everyone will resonate with it. Not everyone will adore it, worship it, venerate it, and find it worthy of valuing. But we Love, regardless, as a star shines, regardless. Love is a frequency. And one day, that frequency will be felt. One day, that Love will be recognized in the eyes of another. A Fire will spark.
A Fire takes care. It takes attention. It takes a breath, a wind, to keep it alive. It takes a body, matter, to burn as fuel. And so a Fire burns in the heart, raging wildly, burning up all that is not Love. And then, nothing is left but Love itself.
This is the power of Love. Love is a Force that can transform worlds. And Love is in everything. It shines brightly, just waiting to be discovered. It is in the eyes of the Beloved. It forms the roots of Nature. It is the fuel of creativity.
Open your eyes. Look around. Seek out Love in everything. Search for that which resonates with your heart. And when you find it, do not let it go. Hold on, but hold with hands of air. Love does not possess. Love does not bind. Love does not control. Love gives. Love is not concerned with itself, with taking or dominating. Love gives of itself. Love’s focus is on the other, always.
Love gives. It gives and gives and gives of itself so much that it relinquishes all that comes up as an obstacle to giving. And through this process, the bonds around the heart shatter.
Love is a beautiful and Divine gift. It only seeks to give and to feel those Fires of Love, to merge with that energy, to get lost, and to dissolve into Love’s very essence. To become Love itself is the goal of the Lover.
Love longs to spend time with the Beloved. For in that space, it can melt. It longs to hear the Beloved speak, through the rustle of trees, through the voice, through the quiet pulse of the breath… It is always in a state of recollection.
Love yearns for its Beloved with a desire, a longing, and an attraction stronger than any sexual union could ever satisfy. It is a yearning of the heart. It is a yearning of the soul to merge with its mate, the only mate a soul could ever have … the Divine.
And in that space, Love cries for the Beloved. It cries through the heart until the heart breaks. It suffers. It aches. It patiently endures the pain of separation. And those cries spill out from the heart and travel through the eyes as the oceans of the Mother, the constant reminder that She is never far from us. And in those tears we find comfort, security, safety, and more Love.
If this is your experience, you may be in Love, the highest kind of Love, the only Love there is. Everything else is merely lust. To distinguish between Love and lust is the duty of the Seeker. To abide by the Law of Love is the only regulation to embark upon the wild and open country of the Divine. Love is the Law.
Live in accordance with the Law. Be Love, beautiful beings. And I say this first and foremost as a reminder to myself, to be Love in everything, to seek Love in everything, and to remember the following quote:
“The blessing of the Almighty Lord is only received by a seeker who seeks the Law. If you do not seek the Law, the blessings will not find their way. Constantly seek out the Law in everything. The Law must be the seeker’s nature so much so that he should become the Law, so much so that the Law should become the seeker until there remains no distinction between them.” ~ Lord Lakulish
Jai Bhagwan. Be Love.
