LOVE ALL - IS ALL

[Guest guest]

OM NAMAH SIVAYA

 

 

Love is happiness. Love is life. Love is energy. Love is

immortality.

Love is wisdom. Love never fails.

 

Love is success. Love is victory. Love is eternal sunshine. Love

alone creates and unites.

 

Love is the moving principle of all forms of fellowship. When you

realise your oneness with a man, you can really love him whole-

heartedly. The world can only be united for common welfare through

unselfish, pure, divine love.

 

Love dissolves hatred and animosity. Love promotes understanding. To

love all as one loves oneself, is the succinct statement of dharma.

Universal love is the mark of saintliness. Without love there is no

life.

 

God resides in all creatures. God is immanent in all forms.

Therefore

love all. Be compassionate to all creatures. This gives the greatest

joy to God. Love all in the one love divine. Modern civilisation is

complicated and artificial. Simple folk live in a world of love and

peace. Let no one hate another or harm another.

 

Look not at the defects of your neighbours. Look at your own

shortcomings and imperfections. Love one another. When these

principles govern an individual's life, then man is happy, peaceful

and joyful.

 

Love is the basis of all real and permanent happiness, of all real

and permanent peace. Love is the supreme gift; it is the greatest

thing in the world. Love never fails. Perfect love casts out fear.

Love lends impetus and incentive to life. It makes one daring,

courageous and strong.

 

Love makes one generous, unselfish, patient, merciful and forgiving.

Love discloses the sublimest meaning and purpose of life. Love makes

one have good-will towards his neighbour, loyalty towards his

friends, and it gives compassion for the enemy.

 

To love is to suffer. Love and suffering always go together.
