It could be a phase of purification for me too, I don't know, but I feel love more easily than ever. I feel love in my heart for myself and for those around me. I don't have to look very far to find it, it is just there if I put my awareness on it.
Sometimes it can come in waves or just by recognizing the innocence that seems to exist in each and every one of us if we look deeply enough in others for it. I see it there just behind their eyes, that innate beauty of existence.
The concept of "being in love" and what makes it perhaps a little more captivating is that there is also the dynamic of ecstasy that is present too that emanates as physical attraction. I see these two blending together creating a physical, spiritual bond between ourselves and who we think we are in love with. I say who we "think" we are in love with because I believe that it comes from us and we assign those feelings to another but that is another story...
It is funny, during practice tonight I had a brief vision of the earth and the natural beauty it possesses from the silence of space simply by its just "being" there in existence. It made me realize that we too all possess a natural beauty which inspires others to innately love us just by our silent being. We don't need to do anything to be loved, just existing is enough.
