Pure Love
all the effect of merit and demerit karma but we blame others
for it. It is like blaming the postman for bringing us bad news.
So it is not real love when your merit karma is unfolding.
You will find love only in a Gnani Purush; otherwise, there is no
such thing as love in this world.
Preserve Your Inner Wealth
People sever their friendships over external problems.
When the friendship begins, they display love externally and
also feel the same love internally. But when problems arise, their
conflicts too will be external and internal. There should be no
conflict internally. Although the other person will not be aware
of it, one should still have love for him internally. As long as
there is internal harmony, one’s humanity will not be lost. One
loses humanity when one loses internal harmony.
Love Has No Limitations
Do I not have love within me? Are you the only one who
has love? Your love is confined to your wife and your children,
whereas my love is limitless.
Questioner: Can love be so limited that it becomes
exclusive towards only one individual?
Dadashri: Love has no limitations. If it has limits and is
confined, then it is called infatuation and attraction. How can it
be limited? If four brothers live under one roof along with their
wives and children, as long as they all live together, they will
say, ‘this is our home’. But when they each move away and
make their own homes, they will begin to say, ‘this is our home
and that is yours’. This is how limitation arises. So the love that
had developed and encompassed the entire household has
narrowed down upon their separation. As a whole group, their
love is intact. Where there is real love, there is no limitation, or
separation. It is boundless.
