Ideas about Love

These are just some ideas about Love and Relationship that attracted me:

-- Surrender and serving each other are the keys to any good marriage or any other kind of stable love relationship.

-- If a person can see the divine in his or her beloved, then that Love will always remain:

The divine in a being is above human imperfections. When we are truly in love with somebody, we can see through and feel the divine perfection. We do not see the human imperfections, and see only the divine perfection, helping the other person to realise their divinity (and thus rise above their weaknesses and imperfections).

-- The best-known and most revered sub-type of Love is the selfless and pure Love of a mother for her child.

-- The people who have experienced a lot of Sadness are the ablest to Love and appreciate Beauty.

-- To be able to feel Love and admire the Beauty of life, our body chemistry must support it. If, for example, we eat too much junk food, our body chemistry will become so dull that we are unable to experience the finer feeling that Love really is.

-- Problem of addiction in Sexual Love: Any "overdose" of enjoyment in Love will physically reduce our ability to enjoy. That is why enjoyment should be moderate and diversified, not excessive and obsessive.

Moderate: Excessive sexual activity depletes the reserve of subtle energies in the body and may produce negative emotions and a general lack of energy and health. Tasting, rather than eating, is the essence of the art of romance.

Diversified: The lover who restrains the beloved from friendship with other people cannot expect love to last a lifetime.

Only when it is diversified and moderated does sexual love remain interesting on the levels of body and mind.

-- Increasing Love and Beauty is about small and simple things, a touch here, a flower there, a smile, attention, and harmony.

-- Beauty and Love should, in any case, be given without expectation of a reward.
