LOVE

LOVE

Love is seeing oneself mirrored in another through spiritual perception of the same Atman in all. Unless the Kulakundalini Shakti awakens and rises to at least the fourth plane of consciousness, the Anāhata Chakra, where disembodied consciousness for the first time dawns and love and light, bliss and knowledge simultaneously manifest before the peeled off vision, love in its essence is not understood beyond the encumbrance of the body. 

The body binds and does not allow the free flow of love which is why it degenerates so often into an admixture of love and lust. Pure love is a bodiless experience emanating from the spiritual heart and has little resemblance to aught of earth if even ennobled in sacrificial terms. There in sacrifice and selflessness of sorts a bit of the real love percolates through the cracks and crevices of this darkened mass of flesh and form, bringing tidings of a higher order of enlightened existence. But that is not to be confused with the Gangā of unalloyed love flowing from the glacial melt of the Spirit residing in Himalayan heights. 🕉
