Pure Love
let it affect me. I lose my energies and the other person’s work
does not get done. And if I do not let it affect me, then the
strength of the Self, energies increase and the other person’s
work is done.
This science is love itself. There is no anger, pride,
attachment and greed in love. If any of these exist then it is not
love.
Pure Love Is Above Virtuous Love
Questioner: Everyone in the world is searching for pure
love but in vain.
Dadashri: This is the path of pure love. This science of
ours is void of desires of any kind. This is the path of pure love.
Such a path cannot be found in this era of this time cycle and
it is indeed a wonder that it has arisen.
Questioner: Can you explain the difference between pure
love and virtuous love?
Dadashri: There is ego involved in virtuous love, whereas
in pure love, there is no ego. In virtuous love there is no greed
or deceit, but there is pride in it. In virtuous love, one has a
sense of being: ‘I am’. And in pure love, one feels oneness with
everyone, because there is no ego.
Questioner: But is it true that in any activity, good or
bad, there is no element of ego. Is it logical?
Dadashri: No. That cannot be. That is wrong, because
no activity can be carried out without the ego. Even virtuous
activities require the ego.
Questioner: Even for pure love ego is necessary. So
how can one do so without the ego? Can the ego and pure love
co-exist?
