________________ Pure Love Pure Love says. Such is the love between them. But nowadays they both quarrel instead. expectation is a type of greed. Real love does not have greed or expectations of any kind. Right now you can see the love that I have, but only if you understand it. I do not need anything in this world. Even if you were to give me all the gold in the world I would not have any use for it. I do not have thoughts about women. I am separate form this body. This body is my first neighbor. Love Remains Within Normal Bounds A mother is the embodiment of the Goddess of real love, the Divine Mother. The Divine Mother's love is real, and encompasses the highest qualities in the relative world. A living Lord also has such love. Look for such a love from the one people call God. It is with Him that you would experience real love even if you do something wrong. And such a love would remain the same even if you were to offer garlands of flowers. It is love that will not increase or decrease. This is called real love and that real love is the Divine Lord Himself. Once a guru and his disciple were hitting each other and they could be heard by those living downstairs. Someone with me, said, 'let us go up' (to look). I told him that it was wrong to watch. Things like this happen all the time. This is just the way the world is. Do daughters-in-law and mothers-in-law not fight? This is similar! The enmity that was bound in the past life is now surfacing and dissipating. The vengeance was bound in their past lives. If this world were full of love one would not to leave the side of his guru. Even if he had a chance of earning a million Rupees, he would forgo it. But here, even when there is nothing for him to earn outside, he still leaves! Why does he go away? It is because he is basically unhappy at home, and he has not found peace. Not An Owner Of A Wife But A Companion This world has not seen love at all. After Lord Mahavir's departure, this world has seen nothing but infatuation and attraction. In the worldly life what people refer to, as love is really infatuation and attraction. It is considered love as long as it remains constant. When it deviates from normality, increases or decreases, that love is considered infatuation and attraction. A mother's love can be called love but when it leaves normality, it is called infatuation and attraction. Otherwise love is the divine Self. The Love Between Guru And Disciple 'I am Chandubhai', is a wrong belief. These are all wrong beliefs. Husbands become domineering because they consider themselves as husbands; owner of the wife. The wives when dominated try to dominate in return and the cycle continues. They should instead think of themselves as companions of their wives. Would there be any problems then? Questioner : Dada you use a very modern term. Dadashri : What else? There will be fewer problems this way. The tussle will end. If they lived as companions they would help each other out. Now if one lives with a companion in a single room home, one person would make tea and the other will finish some other task and in this manner the companionship will last. All doors open with pure love. What can one not attain with the love of a Guru? The love between a real guru and the disciple is such that the disciple absorbs everything the guru
