Love – about which we have heard that love is God. Jesus said love is God, and everyone said God is One. Guru Nanak Dev said Ek Onkar Satnam, Muhammad Sahib said the same – Allah is One. All said the same truth. In all ancient Indian scriptures, we find Advait – Oneness – not Dvait or duality. He is One!
Life is One among all of us, and in this entire universe, whatever we see inside or outside, there is only one energy flowing through all. Externally, there are differences – human, animal, bird, insect, or tree – but internally, the same energy exists. That energy comes from the Supreme – the One we call the Word. This whole world is the mixture of that One energy expressed through many forms.
In the beginning, two appeared and creation multiplied. Trees, animals, birds, insects – all contain energy in varying degrees. Trees have around 20% energy – that is why when that energy leaves, the tree dries completely. Insects have 40%, birds 60%, animals 80%. This energy is what we call the soul – conscious energy. Humans have 100% energy.
If we understand that we have 100% energy, our mind will automatically move toward the Word, the Supreme Source. Even if one has 99% energy, one cannot fully understand. Animals, birds, insects, trees – they cannot comprehend that they must return to the Word. For realization, full 100% energy is required – just as water boils only at 100 degrees.
Humans have that 100% energy because they have a developed brain. This brain, in spirituality, is called the Akaash Tatva – the sky element. When the energy of your brain awakens, you begin to understand the language of the higher world.
Worldly people call love any attachment or connection to the subjects of the outer world – whether to a person, place, or thing – or to the five senses: eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and body. When you are attached to something outside, that attachment creates attraction, and you call it love. When you are not attracted, you say, I don’t love.
But when you say I love, it also means you are excluding someone else. When you say I love her, it means I don’t love another. Favoring one automatically means being against another. This kind of love always brings pain, because what begins as favor will one day turn to disfavor. Worldly love never stands still – it keeps changing.
That is why people say, I fall in love. Notice, the word itself says fall. The Oxford Dictionary says fall in love, but the true meaning should be rise in love. When you truly love, you rise. But when you attach yourself to a person or object, you fall. From the very beginning, you declare, I fall in love – and so, you do fall.
When love is based on worldly attachment, it cannot last. What begins with rising emotion slowly declines. When you love someone, one day that same love can turn into hatred, because when you love one, you automatically reject another. Such love carries duality – love and hate – and anything with duality must fall.
True love is not about attachment. True love is Oneness. It is the realization that the same energy, the same life, flows in all beings – in trees, animals, birds, and humans. Love that connects you to this One – that makes you rise, not fall – is divine love.
When you rise in love, you move toward the Word, toward the Supreme, where there is no duality, no attraction, and no repulsion – only One.
