Love is who we are at the core of our being. We are an integral part of creation, woven into the very fabric of the universe. We are hardwired to know how to love one another all we need do is tap into our nature of being human at a deeper level. Whereas the brain is responsible for giving love its physical expression, love comes from the soul. The question is “Why this higher love seems to be so elusive to so many?” Although we can journey outside our self, the person to give our love to in truth is the one we are with every minute of the day, our self. The most rewarding way to find love is to go within, to live and experience the very source of love. This source of love does not fluctuate up and down, it is not dependent on our fickle minds thoughts and believes, or how others choose to see us, nor does it depend on the lovable and unlovable traits we think we see in others and our self.

If we measure others or our self by what is lovable and unlovable, we are creating the setup or foundation for non-love. For example we might label the unlovable other as odd, an outsider, bad or an enemy….we might even label our self in this manner, and when we do, we create inner conflict which leads to unhappiness for others and for self. This practice of non-love, comes from that critical voice inside that whispers in our ears….the strange thing is that when we reality test what the voice is saying it does not ring true for us at a deeper level. The love that we inherently are balks at such beliefs, and if we can listen to our heart instead of the mind this becomes very clear.

Belief in a higher love is a spiritual kind of belief. It holds that love exists as a universal quality, outside ourselves, that can never be defeated, thus love and non-love are not equals. Love is permanent; non-love is temporary and is fixed on something external to our being. Perhaps we need to restore love as the key to happiness…a difficult task….perhaps this is why we need a spiritual path, so that we can walk away from non-love and its confusions, leading humanity to a new life where everyone, most especially our self, is worthy of loving and being loved.

When we consider that the world is our community and all humanity is like family and is one in unity; then the context of Universal love means that we leave no one out of this equation. Perhaps this is the bigger aspect of love, when people come together and the world is a better place because of the love they share and generate. Perhaps as we unite with others, building the energy of unconditional love, the outcome will be a shared vision and spiritual path all at once.

This higher Love has a power of its own that cuts through doubt, suspicion, distrust and even hatred; if it didn’t have this power there would be too many reasons to act from non-love. This higher power of love found on the spiritual path dissolves non-love and it takes work and practice to live this higher state of love. During this important time in our world, more than ever, it’s all important to revisit the spiritual side of love. The journey may not be easy, but it’s possibly the most rewarding experience we will ever have; and the path? Well, we only need to follow our heart.

…..Love and light, Christina
