ATTRACTION, LIKING OR LOVE?

That, which is generally being called "love" and is being experienced as such on the level of the personality self is often nothing more that an attraction, fascination or infatuation of the Ego. And since such fancies are bound to lessen with the passing of time and due to the natural changes that are constantly happening within the personal self, in the world around us and in other people, this kind of love is predestined to lessen, flounder or even turn into the opposite at some stage. Therefore, personal love is moody but in some cases can still last for a long time, provided both partners or just one of them is playing this game of mutual self-delusion in way that is balancing out the fluctuations of attraction by putting in a constant effort to distract from the truth of the situation.
Still, while such a temporary spell of imagined love is lasting it is a strong positive influence that allows individuals to forget initial dislikes and personal conditionings for some time and to experience acceptance, understanding and compassion instead. But once the blinding influence of personal "love" is no longer there, these tender feelings are often replaced by aversion, hate and anger.
However, when you have reached a state of consciousness that allows you to live your personal existence on the level of the higher self, your love has become unconditional and you are thereby enabled to accept others in their way of being unconditionally. This in turn is allowing you to experience feelings of love, understanding and compassion even in periods when the personal attraction is reduced or even absent.

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 ...

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.
