SELFLESSLY LOVING YOURSELF

How to know whether the love you are experiencing towards yourself is of the true kind or an illusion of your Ego-mind? If it is selfless self-love or egoistical love of the self?
If it is making you feel so full of love that you could hug the whole world and everybody in it- even those people you thought you disliked once,- your love is of the heart. If the centre of your love lies with God and thus has and illuminating effect upon all forms of life you are encountering, it is true love you are filled with. And if the feeling of love within you, extends your mind's capacities, making you unable to name a finite reason for your blissful exuberance (which might also make itself felt to you in silent serenity)  it is true also. And if it passes the test of time and even survives personal storms of emotions/thoughts or physical pain you can be sure it is true love for yourself which is filling your heart.
However, if on the other hand your love only reaches as far as your Ego-mind, you will be able to give finite reasons for it and put it into words. It will make you wish to exclude certain people or personal past experiences from your love. Or it may be dependent upon certain outward factors or your personal emotional/mental/physical conditions. If it fluctuates with your mood-swings and outward situation in life and if you are afraid it might be taken away from you or suddenly vanish, again you are loving with your Ego-mind.
True selfless self-love does not advertise itself to the world and it does not cling on to certain conditions. It simply IS and in BEing, it conquers your personal existence and by this also the world through and around you.

There is always a way out of any situation in life. If at times you feel there is none it is because you are staring straight ahead believing to be infallibly sure of your next step. Instead of allowing yourself the possibility to turn around a walk back a few steps from whence you came from and simply observe your prior position from this little distance. Or to look left and right instead of believing there is only one possible direction in which it is possible to walk in - or that you must go that way and no other for some reason.

TRUE SPIRITUALITY

True spirituality is a 24/7 task and not a weekend occupation to be enjoyed at leisure. Contrary to the view the purely materialistically minded individuals take, to be spiritual does not imply one dodges life's responsibilities. In fact, the opposite is the case. To turn one's steps towards the spiritual pathway in life is a sign of inner strength and means that one is finally willing to grow up and accept one's responsibilites. However atuning your-self to the Divine Light and reaching out to the spiritual heights does not have the immediate effect of instilling eternal light-heartedness and blissfulness in your heart and mind (- although the media are doing their best to promote this idea). In order to attain to such a state of Being, fortitude, endurance and faith are required, because along this pathway there are personal shadows to be faced and many a dark wilderness of the soul to be traversed. Especially at the onset of the spiritual path of Light it may appear ...

NATURAL SHARING

We are all part of an integrated whole and as such share our unconscious as well as our conscious aspects of self. To be blissfully living with our self and in the world transforms us to channels of love, peace and freedom. Therefore, in being consciously aware of the moment and its beauty we are naturally and effortlessly sharing with everyone that, which is most precious in life - love.
