Love is part of our existence
Relationships are not solely about hugging. Here we are talking about something much more sublime. Something much more elevated. Something in the realm of spiritual love. The domain, where we have to enter is: Ananda. Ananda is the pleasure giving energy of the Lord.
Sat Cid Ananda. Ananda is born in the Lord’s love and out of the Lord’s love, the whole creation was manifested. What is the use of feeling, if you can’t feel love? You can feel fear; you can feel excitement; you can feel frustrations; but that’s not the primary reason why we have gotten this capacity for feeling. The feeling of love and the desire to give oneself in Divine love is something most valuable in our life. This is a very important and wonderful aspect of life and if during our life we go further in this direction, we will be increasingly happy and joyful. We will get rid of all the pains we usually experience. Real love is part of us since it is present in the very seed of our existence. A seed has many properties which manifest themselves slowly. Everybody has a hair color, but it is already encoded in the makeup of the seed that our hair color will start disappearing as we grow older.
What does this mean? Everything was part of that seed. You do not become 500 years old if it is not encoded in that seed. No one has got that type of seed, except the Galapagos turtles. We have to see that our seeds possess certain proportions, potentials and properties. Our propensity to love is definitely there, and it will always pop up asking for attention. In the same way that we have to give attention and care to a seed for it to grow well, we have to do the same for our love in order for it to manifest. This attention and care is provided by the process of hearing about the divine purpose of life and by putting what is heard into practice. It is our intention in OIDA-therapy to provide a possibility for discussion about Divinity and the Divine principles of life.
