Although we can learn and deduce a lot
about God’s laws of life and about our own human nature from observing and
understanding the ways of Mother Nature, there are certain aspects of Her, which
can lead to wrong conclusions about humankind. For example any apple is an
apple and thus will in most cases taste like one, too. Meaning, its outward
appearance allows a direct conclusion of its inner life. Whereas the inner and
the outer lives of human beings generally are quite different from each other
to a superficial observer. There is an inner and an outer reality to every
person. And although in human beings the outer is conditioned by and created by
the inner reality, the two might often appear to be complete opposites if
viewed solely with the eyes of the world. However if you care to look beyond
someone’s outward appearance and situation in life and instead recognize the
intentions and motives behind their acts and words and their attitude towards
themselves and their fate in life, you will gain a ore accurate insight into
their inner life. And in returning to the example of the apple: in so doing you
might suddenly realize that a perfect appearance might reveal stale and
tasteless flesh, whereas on the other hand a crumply and browned little apple
can taste rich and sweet.
The Ego is unconsciously aware that love has the power to bestow immortality. And because its greatest fear is to die, it is instinctively seeking after love. However, for as long as the Ego is clinging to the reasons for why it is believing itself to be loved, death remains imminently close and fear remains the dark shadow of the love it is experiencing. Only when the reason for feeling loved is an all-encompassing, unconditional love that is being felt inside your own self, does love make you immortal. Of course, your Ego is still going to die its timely death but because you have released your fears death changes from a threat into a promise.
