There are different kinds of love in your life. There is the life-giving love of your spiritual essence, the love of your soul, which is acting as a silent witness to your personality self (lower Self) and there is the love which you are personally experiencing. Until you have reached a state of self-enlightenment you are only aware of the latter kind of love. However, personal experiences of love can be used as a gateway to an awareness of the other two. Because in moments where you are personally experiencing love the nature of your lower self is likened to the one of your soul, which in itself is an expression of love. In moments of loving your heart and mind are open and thus capable to perceive aspects of your self which are commonly shut out by your Ego in its attitude of fear of the unknown.
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.
