Most have been taught that love is an emotion and so when they read or hear that one must unconditionally love self and everyone, they wonder how they can feel this emotion for everyone and especially those they even like. Emotional love is one facet of love that can be present but does not need to be.
Because most have accepted this concept of love as defining all love it is universally believed that unconditional love must somehow involve an emotional experience and when a person discovers that they are unable to feel emotional love for everyone they often experience a sense of guilt and spiritual failure.
It is impossible to experience the emotional sense of love for everyone, especially for those whose actions reflect a consciousness that is fully embracing duality and separation. You hear stories on the news, or personally witness events where people happily engage in hurting and making other people’s lives miserable leading you to think; “I simply cannot love this person or these people”.
In order to love unconditionally, a person must first understand what unconditional love really is.
Love is the connectedness of all life within ONE OMNIPRESENT DIVINE CONSCIOUSNESS/GOD. Unconditional love is living life from this realization.
Unconditional Love never means being someone’s door mat which often happens when a person has accepted old religious concepts about love that exclude self and promote unworthiness. Unconditional love does mean not being afraid to speak up an say what another may need to hear at their level of awareness. However, even the harsh words that are sometimes necessary will flow on high resonating streams of Light if they flow from a conscious awareness of the other person’s real Divine nature.
Unconditional love is compassionate, but does not enter into sympathy (alignment) with the lower resonating energy another may carry. Unconditional love seeks to lift the person, not wallow in heaviness with them. Unconditional love recognizes needs, not wants, and takes whatever appropriate action he may be guided to take. Unconditional love allows choice and never “guilts” another.
Unconditional Love is simply an attained state of consciousness that recognizes consciously or unconsciously that in spite of any and all appearances every individual at his core is Divine. He lives his life saying, being, or doing what is appropriate regardless of whether or not the other person knows the truth about themselves or is even interested .
Unconditional love is a state of consciousness that realizes ONENESS.
As a person practices unconditional love the best he can with every experience and observing others who live from unconditional love, it gradually becomes his state of consciousness where it then functions in as and through him automatically. Life becomes more joyful. No more pressure to “save” others because unconditional love occasionally means allowing another to fall flat on their face in order to learn and understand the difference between needs and wants.
Call it God, Divine consciousness, Source or even fiddlesticks. It does not matter what you call it because human minds can never fully grasp what God is. God must and always is revealing ITSelf but only those who have moved beyond three dimensional concepts and beliefs can hear it.
The third dimensional earth is governed by and manifests beliefs of duality, separation, and many powers. Lifetime after lifetime most humans have lived lives filled with experiences of both good, evil, and sometimes horrible while feeling separate from God, other people, and all other life forms. Because of this, humans have learned to form judgements about everyone and everything and criticize anyone who does not agree with their own personal belief system.
Concepts regarding love are taught and passed from generation to generation, often reflecting the cultural and religious beliefs of the particular time period. There are some who prefer authority figures to tell them what to believe while others through laziness or ignorance, simply accept whatever current concepts of love are presented on TV shows, in movies, magazines, or songs which more often than not promote love as being sexual attraction. Many simply accept and never question the beliefs of their parents, friends, or organized religion. False concepts of love continually spew forth from all directions and most just accept them without question because they do not yet know the truth of who and what they really are.
An individual who is spiritually ready to embrace and live from a deeper understanding of love and relationships but instead chooses to continue accepting three dimensional concepts about being half of a couple, how to attract someone, or that sexual attraction equals love will often find themselves having a series of unpleasant and painful experiences with regard to relationships (even those that seem right, continually fall apart) eventually forcing the person him to question what a true relationship really is.
The false sense of relationship as everyone being half of a couple promoted through books, TV shows, film, and news as stories about finding the “right one” in order to live happily ever after. The belief that one’s happiness and sense of completeness lies outside of self reflects beliefs of separation and has caused many to go to extremes in order to meet the “right one” and then sink into depression when it doesn’t happen, wondering; “What is wrong with me?”
The real and higher sense of relationship is; “Because I am the individualization of Go/Divine Consciousness I am already whole and complete needing nothing. If I choose to share that with another I can, but I don’t need to
This is not to say that there is never romance or partnership for the spiritually evolved because when you live from this higher sense of relationship it happens without three dimensional seeking and searching. Real relationships begin with an attraction of like energy, rather than an attraction based on looks, status, wealth, or etc. Relationships that flow from a consciousness of self completeness and wholeness unfold without effort because they flow from within.
The neediness, addiction, jealousy, and game playing that accompanies most three dimensional relationships does not exist in relationships that flow from a consciousness of completeness. Relationships that exist on higher level so have romance and emotion, but also acceptance, appreciation, and the freedom that allows each to be the fullest of who they are without judgement or criticism.
Society promotes familial love as being an emotion to the point of usurping common sense. “Blood is thicker than water” has been used as an excuse to commit crimes and do things in the belief that family is the most important consideration in all circumstances. Often when a person decides to go against family tradition or belief in some way, they are ostracized or made to feel guilty by other family members.
All desire for someone or something outside of ourselves is in reality the Soul’s desire for return to the oneness, wholeness, and completeness that is every person’s already present reality but which they have not known as such.
The contents of the one omnipresent, omnipotent, omniscient Divine Consciousness called God and it’s expressions as infinite form and variety can never changed or be affected by the false beliefs a person may choose to hold in their consciousness. God knows nothing about what hypnotized mankind is dreaming. If duality, separation,and many powers were in Divine Consciousness they would be held in place forever by Divine Law never able to be healed, changed, or eliminated.
All forms of love are concepts of God infinitely expressing ITSelf as the many
