Love is Selflessness, Self is Lovelessness.

[Guest guest]

We have no idea what true love is. Of course, Swami loves all of us truely and fully and he overlooks our faults and foibles and hence he could love us truely. We are human, with delusion filled mind and hence our love is always selfish. Of course there may be some exceptions. I do not blame all. We all sail in the same boat of "Ego" baring a few fortunate sadhaks. The veil is thick over our conscience and hence we fail to see the beauty and grandeour of Swami. We should not feel that we are not able to exude pure love. The more we try to eschew our ego, the more love we can share with others. Pure Love is really self effacing. Sacrifice leads to pure love. Gandhiji sacrificed his all for the Nation and independence. He toiled for the Unity of Hindus and Muslims. He adopted 'passive resistance' (a supreme sacrifice) and hence he never harboured any hatred towards the man who shot him at point blank range. He loved Ramanama and due to constant namajapa, he could repeat the name of Rama even when he was mortally wounded by the assasin's bullet. Sairam.
