In theory, it is understood but in practice it's really hard. Would appreciate any insights on this matter. How to love everyone and everything like we love God?

Much love to all[3]

The love is the riped fruit of surrender of individual identity.. that means when a person gets totally devoted to either God or Guru is then the love emerges. It is said that culmination of Bhava Bhakti and culmination of Bhakti is Love or PREM. When this state is achieved you will love every one. Till them you have to just practice to love others.

To make this practice effective and progressive - you need to have some rationale to make your mind accept. If you believe that entire creation is due to God and everything is made of God them each of us are some form of God. So, if you prejudice with someone, you actually are prejudiced with God. But you don't want to be prejudiced with God. Thus, love everyone.

There is yet another technique to develop love towards everyone is to believe that every living entity in the universe behaves according to their destiny or PRARABDHA. It is the nature that makes everyone do karma, not the individual himself or herself. So, if they are not the doer why should have prejudice or hatred with them? They simply the means. If someone abuses you or beats you - it is the nature who is doing it not that person. You should not have any negative thoughts about that person. You should be angry on nature. Since Nature is God, you should be angry on God. With practice of this technique you can develop love towards others.

Beloved Ananda,

May the grace of your Satguru continue to shower your consciousness with Love-Bliss!

Eckhart Tolle (and probably many others) writes "words are signposts". I've also often seen them referred to as 'pointers'.

It's NEVER about the word/thought/idea/concept! It's only ever about That (which can't be thought/spoken)! :-)

But what words can do is 'serve' as a constant reminder. The Bhakti reabsorbs the ego with Love, whereas the Gnani destroys it with Wisdom. But both simply lead to That.

For the Gnani "I" points to ego. For the Bhakti you/me/we/us/I points to the Supreme (there is no differentiation between the labels).

Thank You. I Love You.

Thanks dear... A change or shift in perception has happened since I last wrote this post. I understand more what you said. Love is my religion. Allah is love. There is none but God in existence. He is existence. Salam[3][/\]
