Divine Love - A Definition According to Sanatan Dharma

"God is Love," rather "Love is God."

One who can see the mulct difference between these two statements is the lone true Lover of God. By nature, every 1 is after love, but only true saints and true retainers of Supreme Being have got really experienced the consciousness of Godhead Love. There are two sorts of love: Negro spiritual and sensual. The worldly, as well as those who seek God, are all within the field of physical or animal pleasances until they recognize God.

Anytime an action or emotion partially or wholly affects anything that is in the kingdom of the ever changing Prakriti, such as as bodies, organs, senses, pranas, the mind, mind or ego, it is considered a physical or animal pleasure. Such pleasances must maintain changing and come up to an end, which consequences in misery. In the devotional paths, a fan ultimately goes Love where dichotomy bes no more. Radha is Krishna or Krishna is Radha, but these two personal identities cannot be simultaneously. Such is the ultimate nature of Love. The aspirer who prefers to utilize the way of favoritism ultimately undergoes self-realization where Love alone remains.

When we talk of Love, we are talking about the true ultimate Love that depends on no objects, persons, circumstances, time, place, events or grounds because all those must constantly change and come up to an end. Such a finite love is no good for a individual seeking Ageless Love, without which one will never happen ageless peace. We, being trips of that Love, cannot be pleased with anything less than that Supreme Love.

Love never bargains, trades or expects. Love never complains, never demands, and never hopes. Love never accepts anything less than Love, and therefore, never take downs itself to physical, mental or intellectual pleasures. Love cannot be measured, imagined, argued about or logically arrived at. Only full religion and complete resignation to the volition of Love enables us to totally resolve our egotism and unify into this ocean of love.

As Brihadaranyakam Upanishad says, "Verily, it is not for the interest of the organic structure of a married woman that a married woman is dear, but for the interest of the Love or Self (Atman) in her that the married woman is dear." This statement also uses to husband, sons, wealth, name and fame, gods, animals and all creation. To undergo true Love is the end of all of the Yogas presented in the Gita. A beautiful experience expects all of us only if we will listen, practice, meditate and absolve ourselves as directed by Mother Gita.
