The Way of Love

[ Caution ]

People who are expecting something light and funny to read can close this page right
now !! The following content is “ food for thought “ and is alleged to cause severe mental agony to whoever reads it. The views expresses here are entirely mine and are based on my perceptions. and to answer a few – “ No, you needn’t be the intellectual equivalent of 50 Dalai Lama’s to understand this..”

[ Caution Ends ]

Most of you might have heard a saying “ God is Love and Love is God “. This reiterates the fact that there exists one supreme lord and love is common in this world. The Christians, Muslims, Jews, Hindus etc. worship different gods but, truly there is only one god. Why then if we love the same one god, do we quarrel? We quarrel because we do not know and understand what real love is. If we have true love and affection for the one supreme lord we will naturally love each other.
We are all part and parcels of the same supreme lord. Even though we are all individuals, we all depend upon the same sun & we all breath the same air. This is the principle of “ Unity in Diversity “. Unity refers to the fact that we are all part and parcels of the same lord, the father of all; and diversity refers to our eternal individual natures. Because this is the eternal reality, we will only find peace and happiness in this reality. Unity in Diversity will have no meaning if people have no faith in the supreme lord, or love for him & all his living entities. We cause misery due to misunderstanding. We do not know how to love everyone. This can only be achieved by first embracing the supreme love. Some of us think he does not exist at all, some think he is impersonal and some think there are different divinities for those of different religious faiths. For all I can say, they are still not mature enough to embrace the “All Attractive Reservoir of Pleasure “…
