LISTENING HEART

In order to truly hear and see another person you have to do more than stop speaking yourself and turn your ears and gaze towards the other. You have to become silent in your self and with your mind and open your heart to the being of the other. Otherwise all you are hearing and seeing are your own notions, projections and prejudices of how you believe the other to be like.
Relationships are usually sought because there is a need in the self to be heard and seen and thus understood by another person. However, it can be observed that very often there is no true relating happening between two partners because both parties are too busy listening to and seeing themselves instead of being willing and ready to truly listen to and see their partner.

LOVE LOVE

There is a kind of love which unifies and unites and one that renders us poignantly - at times even painfully - aware of boundaries, limitations and our separateness. The mastership of true loving is to attain the awareness of the first and to henceforth exist in this state even whilst passing through personal experiences of the love that separates.

LOVE ME FOR A REASON

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.
