If you desire to learn to see the truth of a situation/another person/yourself/God, you have to be willing to love and to cultivate the ability to love. Because only love endows you with the strength and trust necessary, in order to be able to overcome your fears. Unless you conquer your fears through love, your perception of the truth will always remain conditioned by them and in consequence, of course, very limited. And the reason for this is very simple: love opens your heart and mind to welcome the truth in whatever shape or form it might show itself. Whereas fear, on the other hand, closes your heart to life and narrows down your mind to a fixed idea of the truth.
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.
