Another Day another chance I have to live with my entire being. And that means mind, body and spirit…
I was meditating on how everything Is being run by Love. I was sitting on the train yesterday and I began to see how the life in every body around me was supported and sustained by love. And everyone has a different way by which they go about attaining love or showing love. Some receive love through being beautiful.. some through wealth.. Fame.. power.. renunciation.. wisdom. They take pride in these qualities .. And based on where they are finding love.. that energy sustains the body. When we lose these qualities (or our feeling of having them).. we fall into very depressing states.. almost as far as suicide. Almost as if the life force begins to drain away. And love is usually conditional. I love you if you give me this.. Or if you are my race.. or if you were also from my country. Or if you believed in the same philosophy as me.. So Love then can never be experienced fully..
For example.. One popular song called. “swagger like us”. By TI.. Kanye.. Jayz- Lil Wayne.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Tg8-YwLQeM The song is about how amazing it is that they have so much of one of those qualities. They are the best.. because they have these qualities.. and its a glorification of these material qualities. They recieve love from people because of these material qualities. Only thing.. the material energy is always changing.. and is temporary.
A spiritualists also has a connection to these qualities.. And sees them as the essence of who they are. So they walk with the same swagger.. But their love is from a place beyond material qualities. They have a confidence in what they do because they are being backed by a spiritual potency that is eternal and beyond the temporary material world.And they are connected to a person who has all these qualities in full…. and that person is their best friend.. ever well wisher.. Kind of like being the son of a king who owns all the money in the kingdom.
Because that love isnt based on any material situation like race, wealth etc.. Then it is more readily available and can be given any time and anywhere.
Ahh lofty goals.. haha
But on another note..
