Infinite love is like the shining sun, and humankind, inhabiting this earth, must find balance in love. We need the sun to live, and it maintains a necessary distance from us. The same is true of love: to exist in this life, we need love, and without it, suffering arises. Therefore, we need this balance between love and suffering to live this adventure called life. We seek growth and strive to draw ever closer to that pure love, to return home, to the source.

a) Undefined Love

• It is a love so pure that it defies definition.

• It is like the sun that shines brightly, and humankind, inhabiting the earth, must find balance in love. To have life, we need the sun, and it maintains the necessary distance from us. The same is true with love; to be in this life, we need love, and if we lack love, suffering arises. Therefore, we need this balance between love and suffering to live this adventure called life. We seek growth and to draw ever closer to that pure love, to return home/to the source.

• What is suffering?

b) Giving Love and Joy

• The impulse of creation is to hold onto love and share joy. But we must change the dynamic to “Giving love and receiving joy”
• I allow myself to love and be loved
• There is love
• I am self-contained love
