Sweet and sour love

Half-serious thoughts of falling in love ingredients

Peace Times 11

This is the recipe which we, mistakenly, define as love. But this feeling which makes us hold a person as wonderful, perfect and unique today, and which tomorrow makes us consider them full of defects, insecurities and faults, cannot be true love. A love like this is nothing other than a form of egocentric attachment which is directed at gratifying ourselves with the possession of another person. More than of love - a feeling of pure excellence, unselfish, fulfilling and everlasting - we should talk of illusion. Our mind passes from one illusion to another when we fall in love, and when we fall out of love. The person who is the object of our love is, in reality, neither that which we see before nor that which we believe we see after. In a certain sense, it is our mind which creates the defects or qualities of that person. In conclusion, only the love for our own spiritual master can help us escape from this distorted vision of reality.
