Nowadays, all over the world each human being is eloquent on love, but what is love?
In this mortal world, all descriptions of love are relative. Almost all our relationships are nothing but charades emanating from identity crisis. True love, in contrast, is not associated with the finite sensations of identity at all. The day when human beings truly understand the inner essence of love, there will be universal flowering of goodness. Love is divine and selfless. It is the spiritual nectar of the universal mind.
True love can flower if there is no intention to win. When there is no intention to win, desire disappears and love blossoms. Love is the everlasting spiritual movement of the universal mind. It begins when nothing is expected in return. Only through an unconditional submission one can comprehend the true glory and infinite happiness of love.
Love is a not a concept to be learned. Most of the people cannot understand the inner essence of love because of their conditioned minds. A conditioned mind knows only to give respect, not to love. Therefore, it is impossible for the conditioned mind to fathom the true glory and the infinite happiness of love.
Only a person who loves the universe can love the individual, others who claim that they love the particular, neither do they love the particular nor the universe. This is the law Eternal.
In this material world, we love someone when they are a comfort to us, and we hate someone when they are not a solace to us. Nevertheless, there is nothing great in loving someone when they are a consolation. This is just an outcome of self-comfort, narcissism and hypocrisy. M. K. Gandhi says, "Love never claims, it ever gives, love ever suffers, never resents, and never revenges itself."
Kahlil Gibran says, "You give yourself little when you give your possessions. It is when you give yourself that you truly give.” Unconditional love cannot be an occasional act. It is an attitude, a dedication, a state of mind, and a disposition of benevolence, confidence and justice. Ancient spiritual declarations clearly assert that the true meaning of the word 'Bhakti' is nothing but an unconditional submission, the surrender. The day humanity realizes the the true root of Bhakti, the entire human race will be freed from all prejudice, aggression, frustration, loneliness and so on.

Bhakti begins where nothing is expected in return. In the state of Bhakti one cannot feel any expectation or desire. It is the most sacred, scientific and blissful state of unconditional love, where one goes beyond the particular space-time and merges with the creation of the eternal. In the state of Bhakti, the observer and observed becomes one. It is the highest state of spiritual oneness. It can happen with wife, husband, lover, child, friend or any given opposite. Bhakti itself is the true face of universal love. One can understand the true glory and infinite happiness of Bhakti only through unconditional submission.
Note: My dear friend, sex is not love. Sex is the need of the body and the love is the need of life. When you truly realize the the divine art of love and sex ego disappears and in that ego-free state everything is possible because only in the ego-free state identity crisis and the calculative infatuation of the mind disappears and the true unconditional love blossoms.
