True love

Q : Bhagavan could you please explain what is true love?

Bhagavan : Ok before understanding what is true love let us know what is current state of man. Today basically most of you are beggers of love. You want others to show you love. What you think love is actually craving for love. That is why when people love esch others it is actually that " she needed his need for her and he needed her need for him." of course you too love but what kind of love it is that? It is very conditional love. Suppose your husband take care of you very well, you love him. If he drinks and illtreats and doesn't fulfil your expectations do you love him? If your parents are very nice to you, you love them. Otherwise you dont love them. Similarly if the wife is beautiful and is very nice, the husband loves her .If she gets small pox or cancer if she ids disfigured, there is embarrasment and discomfort. There is always such thoughts as there is nothing more to life, there is fesr of society and dissatisfaction. So what happened to that love? So this is conditional love.

There ar eyet another people who think that they love, for eg some social workers. They feel they ar ecompassionate and want to give up there lives for people. But what they dont seem to understand is the so called love or compassion they feel is coming out of concept, conditioning and trauma. These people can be called as selfrighteous people ( they derive a do- gooder's high).

So where you are begging for love that is not love. Where there is attachment and possesion and making use of people that is not love. Love born out of concepts and conditioning is not love. So what you know is condiional love. You can see this in your own relationships.

You cannot try to love, that will never happen. What do you know about love? All that you know is jealousy, selfishness, anger, hatred, lack of love therefore craving for love. That is the truth about you. you are not Mahatma Gandhi, Surdas, Ramakrishna Paramahamsa. You ar eonly what you are. Isn't it? So all that you must do is, " become aware that you dont have love ". You have to accept it. You have o be with it. When you become that you dont have love, love starts happening automatically. You have been trying to love, bu have you changed one bit? You are exactly where you were ( but we are not decent and honest enough to admit that ). So now you stop trying to become be exactly what you are. See the terrible thing in your heart. How when somebody comes to you you say hello sir welcome.... but that is not the truth. Inside you ar ethinking why did he come now? Actually you are putting on a nice mask. You have never face the actual you, the truth. The truth has gone far behind. I do know devotees, they wear mask even before me and I also go along with them. Why I should take out their masks? That would be too painful for them. That mask is there because of the society education, culture etc. People think that is the only way to survive.

When people get married, there is joy in their relationship in the begining. Slowly the images sets in in the wife and the husband also develops masks. And the images begin to relate The real person has withdrawn. There is no more joy in the relationship. That is how your heart get closed.

So all that we are telling people is to become aware of the mask. Become aware of your games. Just do that. Thats all. I am not asking you to be a saint or a sage. You are horrible people, you are terrible people, see that and you will discover love.

To see is to love.
