Spread the love beyond the boundary



We are all guided by our sensual feelings. When we feel hungry; we eat to satiate our hunger.  When we feel thirsty, we drink water to quench our thirst. We study books to increase our knowledge.  We visit temples to seek God’s blessings.  We love each other to show our sympathy, bonding and sexual gratification.  All these sensual feelings give rise to various types of emotions, which is very common to all living beings.  Through these emotional feelings, one reach others. Supposed, a man is thirsty and you provide him a glass of water, you reach him. In this way, we  connect to other human beings and then to nature and finally in the universe. This emotion is increased when we attach the same with  the feeling of of love. And, with this feeling, you can cross any boundary, barriers, obstacles, impediments, if not physically, but mentally. Ultimately, you can create an image of universal motherhood.

The greatest flowering which is possible to bloom on this earth, is love.  A red colored beautiful rose blossoms quite naturally from its  plant and provides an aesthetic beauty. In the way flower blooms, love also sprouts in our hearts and when expands for the good causes, all seems to be happy. Love spreads the message of compassions. It removes hatred. It brings harmony. It provides equanimity in the society. We should encourage the spreading of love. We should not confine this love in a boundary. We should love each other without any expectation.  It is really encouraging to observe the power of love when the strength and beauty of two hearts commiserate at ease. Love can be compared both with the cool freshness of the full moon and the brilliance of the sun’s rays. Why this similarity is drawn? Because, when love extends for the purpose of showing kindness, compassion and to help others who are in distress, it is as pure as the moon’s coolness.  When this same love is interpreted for bodily and sensual actions, then the same is treated like the scorching heat of the bright sun. As the sun ray pierces the body, giving a burning sensation and make us exhausted; in the same way the love with impurity and ill feelings destroy us.

A beautiful pair of husband and wife may say, “We are living together in mutual love.” They may be often fighting with each other, but just to show affinity, they pretend their love and affection for each other. This is a gross misconception of true love. Love is an object given to us by God. It is free. One can practice, utilize  and savor its fragrance like a flower. But when it is not from the heart, it is construed as a make-believe love. The pure and sincere love is beyond imagination. You cannot love anything in your imagination. That is fantasy. Mentally, you can dream, but if you want to love a human being or any other non-living beings, you have to do so physically either by expression or by your feelings.  Love can not be imagined as a fake.  It is life itself.  Wearing a mask, if you pretend to love, it must be removed.  Because, when you pollute the love, it loses its purity. It only happens in the absence of humility or the spirit of compromise. Love is such a sacred aspect that you have to think its  beauty with your mind.  Unless you exert your openness and embrace anyone or any object with your love, the same will not be treated as an artificial matter. For example, if you are not really thirsty, you will not touch the bottle of water lying on your table.  On the contrary, if you are very thirsty and you happen to pass through a river, you will bend down and take some water in your hand to quench your thirst. 

In the case of conjugal love, when a man and a woman are involved in any type of cordial relationship initially, it is seen that after a passage of time, they start suspecting each other.  In the disguise of loving relationship, they pretend  and  show disrespect to the sacredness of love, which is either way is missing in today’s world. When you cast a suspicion in a loving relationship, the longevity and the health of the persons involved  suffer. This suspicion is also a one type of disease. When someone is afflicted with this kind of disease, he or she loses the concentration power to listen to the other person’s opinion thoroughly. An antagonizing feeling is being developed in the mind of the person.  In that case, the feeling of love will be less and the feeling of hatred will be more. The relationship will be destroyed. Despite all these odds, we have not lost love forever.  By any chance, if love is only fading away momentarily, the situation can be revived in the course of time. But if it is lost forever, the world will be nothing less than a battlefield. Love exists for every person. We must inflame the same to maintain a for  good purpose.  We can never allow love to get extinguished.  We must respect, worship and show our faith in a divine power. This power is not extrinsic; it is  to be felt intrinsically. If we want to discover this power, we have to spread love all over our circle. To spread the power of love, we need to adjust our perspective.  For example, while writing something on a paper, we focus on our thoughts, but not on the paper or the pen because  these papers and pens are the media only; the main  perspective is to write exercising the power of our thoughts.


Today, we live in an artificial world.  We give more emphasis on the artificial activities and follow cut short in every affair. The definition of humanity is brought down to the level of insincerity. Men and women have lost the power of sincerity to provide the real cause of life and its sustainability.  They completely forget the fundamental reason that life is love. When we read, we should focus our attention to grasp what the words and its juxtaposition want to convey.  We must also know the fact that the paper, on which the words are written, is the substratum. In the same way, all of us  and our next generation must recognize the fact that the life’s core message is love. Once this theory is established, all afflictions will disappear and everyone will live in peace. There should not be any boundary. We have to consider love  like a sea; nobody knows from where it starts and ends.
