Love That's Unqualified
SHRI NIMISHANANDA
|
Emotions help us feel divinity .The greatest emotion is love.Today , love is only pertaining to family , friends and acquaintances around us. It filters down according to the proximity of our relationships.The kind of love we are used to is about `expectations'. For example, if we show love to someone and that person doesn't reciprocate as expected by us, we start hating the same person whom we liked moments ago. So, even the emotion called love fails here. The very base of divinity is love, and we clearly fail to feel divinity .
All human beings were only an extension of the Creator.Wise men showered unconditional love not only on humans but also on all other living beings. That was how ahimsa was established. Love one and all.We then feel divinity , and we can establish it in our hearts and learn to pray universally .
Usually , even our prayers are self-centred. We present a list of desires to God and ask him to grant them. Sages ask us to rise above ourselves and pray for the people around us and for the welfare of the world.When we offer such selfless prayer regularly , it purifies us and helps to establish us in a state of nobility . When we are established in a state of nobility, we draw close to Divinity .
As we draw closer to Divinity , it wells up from the soul and overflows. We are enveloped in peace, bliss and contentment.We have finally tapped the divine core within. When each and every pore in our body is oozing with Divinity , it becomes a mantle to encircle the world and peace reigns supreme.
