burn only my candle with the flame of someone, through the lamp of someone, then somebody's home will be lightened (lit) from that flame. But if there remains no consideration of others, then no 'LOVE', but 'Selfishness' will remain there. Then the will forget the Mother after marriage. Isn't there the saying that his love towards the Parents reduced to half as soon as Majnu married Layla! But ----
"LOVE IS WHOLE, NOT FRACTION".
And where this FRACTION, there is FACTION! There should be EQUAL BALANCE in love and not the one sided Weighing Balance. Therefore we have to Love All, to maintain respect -honour of All! Therefore my Gurudev says----
"LOVE IS THE LOADSTAR OF MAN'S LIFE".
Our life-boat should sail towards that load-star of love. If that direction is correct, then rest of all will become correct. If it is not correct, then nothing could be achieved. Hence one thing is at least clear that love is a sacred thing, which carries us high, makes us face to face with God. For this reason only a Great Person had already said:
"Love is God, God is Love".
And therefore only darling devotees of God go on singing in ecstasy"What of drinking Nector, if not drunk the taste of juice of love?"
What of if became chieftain of learned persons if read & studied all the books of the world?
When I shall stand before that owner of the cosmos, shall I say: Like this that, "I have written so many books, I have acquired so many University Degrees, I have shaken hands with so many Governor!" Shall my God listen to that all? Will like to ask ----
"I want see that window - that small window of the heart, which you had opened to see! I have done nothing worthwhile in your eyes, if that window has remained closed!"
"Love is expansion not contraction". There remains no 'tension & stress, no narrowness of Thoughts. Love is wide-spread like the sky, free like the sky! The sky over England is not different from the sky of India; there are not separate compartments of Vaishya, Shoodra, Brahmin, Kshatriya. There are neither slums, nor untouchability, any sort of Ego? Love cannot exist there, where enters in it 'touch me not is in due to pride of wealth, pride of knowledge'.
There is a temple. People come over there to pray before God. All run towards him who comes in motor car, but no one even looks at him who comes walking on foot!
Surprisingly great is this devotee! He cheats his own self, sometimes! But God could not be cheated. He could not be cheated in name of love, in name of religion. It is not even right to betray him or man..
Devotee acquires the same experience what we get in youth: "Rama - God - in all!! Then he goes on wandering from village to village and street to street saying so:
Who tells you that you are hided in masked veil? I have seen you in every home and market. Such is the magic of love. But there is the path of death if we wish to impose some sort of force on others in name of love.
"Love is humble" Love is full of humility and is the readiness to sacrifice & die for others. "Love is sacrifice". We shall not sell it to anyone. We shall bear it smilingly, whatever happens in life.
"Love has sense of humour" There are two steps of love:
