What is Love?

There is a Light within every one of us, but due to the darkness, we do not comprehend the Light. That is the condition of every one of us. And how do we eliminate the darkness? Christ says there was a man sent by God.… He sent somebody from his level to our level to tell us how to eliminate that veil of darkness and how to see that Light which is within every one of us.…

You never calculate to fall in love. After falling in love, running after the beloved becomes natural. You don’t have to put forth an effort to run after the beloved, neither did you have to put forth an effort to fall in love. There’s something within you which prompted you to love that person. You found yourself helplessly in love, and now there is something within you which is making you run after the person. What are you doing? If you want to take the credit that you are running after the beloved, you are wrong. But for that love, you would never run after the beloved.

So if we are meditating, there is something within us which is urging us to meditate. There is something within us which is giving us that atmosphere, that environment, those circumstances, and creating that yearning, that feeling of separation. As Christ said, blessed are those who mourn for the Father. The Father creates that feeling of separation in us, and when we feel that separation, we long to become one with him.
