i agree. that would be like trying to explain the color green to someone who has been blind thier whole life.

it may be possibly in another density or level (telepathically?) but not here thats for sure.

you must feel love, not try to explain it or see it or touch it or hear it. it is beyond our "commonly accepted" earthly "senses."

for me, love is both the feeling of deep appreciation and genuine concern for all things.

love love!

for me, love (that's with capital letters) is the desire to make good to others
from a april post.

a few years ago, i read this from a wonderful book while searching for what spoke to me on love. i hope you enjoy. from star man: (not the book) pm for name

screaming hawk, patton boyle (shamanic warrior and christian converge)

i did not believe that god is love. how can one love an organizing force, a power? perhaps god was more than a force or power in the universe.

you think love is something that it is not. you identify love with your feelings. because of that you think love is a feeling. it is not.

you do not understand that love is commitment. that love is profound commitment not with the mind but with the heart. you do not love with the mind. you love with the heart, but you do not feel with the heart. love is on a deeper level than feelings.

you can not always detect it with your feelings. that has caused much confusion for your people. they think that they must feel something when love is encountered. sometimes they do. sometimes they do not. your people do not understand that love is a dimension like time or space. it is what is. love is what is. it is behind all creation. creation came forth out of that dimension. creation expresses love but is not itself love; it is love put into action.

"love is what is". love is the deepest dimension. you do not create it.
because you feel things that you associate with love, you think that it is your
love. you can not create love within yourself. you can create some things but you can not create love. in its purest form it is encountered on the level of silence. beneath matter and energy and all things that can be encountered in physical or spiritual realm is love. love is the basic element behind all that is.

when love comes in its purest form people do not recognize it because they are expecting it to be something else. you want love to make you feel good. sometimes it does; sometimes it doesn't. you want love to make you feel good about yourself; but sometimes it reveals things that you do not like about yourself. love always draws one back, into deeper levels of oneself, towards one's beginnings or onward, into new areas, towards one's end. love is the beginning and the end. love is the essence out of which all things come and towards which all things go. it is the elemental essence of the universe. as you encounter it you are changed; you must be changed; for love is constantly in transition and yet always the same.

remember the words. but remember also that the truth is not in the words themselves it is in he silence between the words. in the silence love speaks.

re-member, you are already love, so is everyone else you encounter. life and our experiences challenge us to or from love, but we are all love.

peace and good will to all !

ps: star man is jesus in the book....

love to me is the satisfaction of not knowing. in other words, being satisfied with not knowing anything. i think love comes when oneself realizes that they know nothing and cannot know anything.

hi folks

rhonda's post reminded me of something i scribbled down a little while ago which i've now expanded on & goes like this:

"in the beginning there was love and love wished to experience itself. from the light of love sprang forth the lack of the light of love, the dark, thus duality was created giving rise to all experience and expression of love."

just my thoughts. :d

dw and ls in their 'there's only one of us here' audio blog describe love as acceptance of all that is or something along those lines if i've remembered correctly.

onwards & upwards

this is difficult since we are confining it to words. it is tempting to describe it as a feeling. in my experience, it is more a state of being or conciseness. i experience it at moments when i feel part of something or one with the existence. like a connection exchanging and radiating.

example for me is the other day i was watching some people outside and for not apparent reason i just felt connected with them. like the ground, air, and everything else were all synced or one. it was love. but the experience passed as soon as i was aware of it and start to think on it.

i think is truth or like truth in that it is ever changing with the now and at moments that we drop our ego, our mind, we can experience it.

my concept of love it that it should be "unconditional". it must come from the heart and be unselfish in nature. it should lift you to share this personal emotion with anyone, even those who reject it or don't reciprocate.

for me, love is that which is the only thing that is real... i experienced it and awknowledged it for the first time ever back in the year 1999 during my awakening. since then, i know it to be the only thing that is real... and no words, thoughts, ideas or concepts can ever explain that which it really is...

love is you. love is always. love is fear. love is nothing. base consciousness on love and love just is.

love is how the cosmos move because we change and evolve with it.

self love is experiencing life in your own universe.
saying i love you to another is letting them feel your life through love.

personally, i'm quite sick of hearing about love. it's such an overdone concept. it's too easy, and all too often understood only in second-chakra terms. patience and tolerance, i feel, are more desirable virtues than love today, since everybody seems to misunderstand the word anyway.

making love and loving cake
are all part of the plan
it's the positive flow of energy
that can be chosen by each man

love is not a finite thing
that hate can take away
and hating hate does not equate
to creating love in any way

when sides are drawn
do not be torn
to love some people less
for they are you
and what you do
affects all the rest

so what is love?
it's what you do
when you appreciate
each moment on this mortal coil
before you dissipate

but don't be fooled
by thinking that
some love's 'purer' than the rest
or that romantic love is far above
loving eating a chicken breast

for love is love, like digital
it's either off or on
the simplest thing in the world
but the reason we were born

so love what you do and all that you meet
and everything that you possibly can.
don't feel guilty for pleasures
or desiring treasures
as this world is a funhouse for man

but if your life is a terrible thing
and in bondage your future is locked
remember that you always have the choice
to love yourself if that's all that you've got....

i think love in it's purest form is seem when a woman goes through the hours of pain in labor and when that baby comes into the world and you hold your little one for the first time and look into those beautiful eyes that look back at you, that is love.

hi all,

"love" might be defined as the phenomenon of radiating light unconditionally:-)

maybe that is why enlightened beings resonnated with ra, the sun god? if "god" were defined as "all that is"; given ra's perspective, it may be a little easier to know that all is one:-)

yours glowing,

mawk

the concept of love is an illusion because concepts are ideas, not the real thing. the concept of love has led to suffering because of the expectations it arouses. the birth of the baby which aroused such love feelings is now a memory, where is that feeling now? a memory is an idea, a concept, not the real thing.

the closest i've come to love is a couple of cosmic experiences of oneness with the universe i experienced as a child and later had other such experiences from different situations. but those also are now memory. where is that love now?

i don't want concepts anymore, i want the real thing. i've come to understand that love is not a feeling, because feelings come and go and can cause suffering.

i found this explanation of love in the law of one:

love may be seen as the type of energy of an extremely high order which causes intelligent energy to be formed from the potential of intelligent infinity in a particular way. all love emanates from the oneness. (b2, s27, 8)

i have no idea what that means. however, i now have what i think is the experience of love or something close to it. it's the emptiness of the moment, the now, a neutral state that's not good, not bad, has no feeling but is infinitely satisfying. not even that. it just is.

and i go on as before, with all my personality quirks, my likes, my dislikes, my ups and downs, experiencing everything that comes along. la la la. i don't have to stay in the guilt or the regret or the resentment or the whatever, because none of it matters. i'll get into momentary panic when i get sucked into the maelstrom of the fear movement, but then pull back and laugh at it all. none of it matters!!

not getting sucked in is important. ra did say that wanderers are in danger of getting caught up in this reality and forget who they are and what they came for. i guess i forgot. oh well, it doesn't matter.

...

i found this explanation of love in the law of one:

love may be seen as the type of energy of an extremely high order which causes intelligent energy to be formed from the potential of intelligent infinity in a particular way. all love emanates from the oneness. (b2, s27, 8)

....
i interpret ra saying this:

the feeling/energy/thought creation/whatever you call it, of "love," is based in the connection we feel with another life form, be it plant, animal, person, etc.
that connection (even though it may be small in comparison to the real oneness) reminds us of oneness. it re-kindles that feeling of connection. the feeling of love actually conquers, in a way, the distortion of seperation. and when we can set the "we are seperate" notion aside for just a minute, we get a little glimpse into the big picture of true connection....and thats what love is.

we may see it in a lot of beings throughout our lives, we may see it in very few, but when the love is there, it is holding hands with the truth that we are connected in every way. thats why the emotion is so strong.

...now imagine what it feels like to be on a plane where the distortion of seperation is non-existant!!! it'd be like love x 1,000,000!
