Love
Attitudes
1. I realized when we are told to love Him, it means Him and Him alone and nothing else. Sometimes there is this thought that if I were to be reduced to destitute, I shall be quite glad, for it is his will and pleasure. Thoughts and feeling of dependence, attachment and obedience bring sweetness to the heart. But I submit I never really forget about my self and perhaps the feeling of glamour is there also.
It is said by Lord Krishna that those who love Him shall surely reach Him. Awareness of self is bound to be there for most part of the journey.
2. We discovered that we were very severe and conditional in our way of loving each other and that we need to develop a much more unconditional love. Is it a consequence of the practice? This is a new begining and we feel like fresheners.
I do not know much about the way you look at the nature of Love. When we Love the Master with our entire being we love all automatically. Harmony and happiness are the stages next to the Ultimate and we should endeavour to be in that condition as far as possible. This is possible only when we gift our little heart to the Divine. Ofcourse all this is part of the sadhana in which we learn the transitoriness of all events and all that exists.
3. In one way I am looking for love of people (98 percent of time), and in the other way I am looking for love of master. I feel a real contradiction. What is the solution to grow in the second way? Practising seriously sadhana is enough? or do I have to do/ be something else?
Your question relating to the contradiction between love to Master and love to people is rather odd. He is the essence of all people and it is only we who try to keep Him apart from us. The meaning of meditation in the heart is to feel the presence of the Divine in the heart. There is only one way and that is the way to see Him in all and all in Him. We should endeavour to see and feel unity in all
