Narada Bhakti Sutras - Day 9 (Part 2)


    Love Needs No Proof

    • There are two aspects in life
      • To learn
      • To like
    • To learn requires time but we don't require time to like something; one requires effort other is effortless.
    • Same way knowledge might require some effort; at least you have to be alert to grasp the knowledge. Intuition is effortless.
    • Love requires no time; an action requires more time than knowing but love requires no time.
    • Narda says: it is so easy to be in love; being in love might appear difficult but life without love is even more difficult.
    • Similarly people say that accepting someone is difficult but see if not accepting is easier…:)
    • It is easy to accept people because it brings comport to your mind; chose the easiest path…:)
    • At times what appears to be easy might not be easy; so don’t accept it on face value go deeper and find.
    • Life needs both like and learning and whatever you like, learning becomes easier and spontaneous. When love is there even learning becomes easier.
    • Love is lacking in life that's why we don't learn anything in life. And when love is there, it makes everything easy.
    • Mind goes only where there is love. Your mind goes to a movies because you love it…:) Don't blame poor mind…:)
    • Make divine your valentine and mind will always go there;  meditation will become effortless; three is no need to prayer if love is there.
    • Wake up and see you are thirsty. Love is the easiest path.
    • There is no need of any other proof. Do you need a proof that you are thirsty? The fact that you are thirsty is itself a proof.
    • Love itself is a proof. Wherever there is love it is self evident. You don't require a proof.
    • For certain question it is best to give 'No' answer…:)
    • If someone can not see the light in front what is the point in explaining because for a blind man any amount of explanation will be waste.
    • Certain questions can not be answered.
    • If someone has love in heart it pours out from our being; from
    • But you need to be sensitive to feel that, to experience that love.
    • Feeling and experience need no proof; love needs no proof.
    • You can hide hatred to some extent but you can not hide love. Love becomes more evident.
    • What is the form of love:
      • Narda says: It is peace; it is serenity. Divine love spreads the bliss. The peace and bliss that surround the enlightened, the devotee, the one who is in love is itself the proof.
    • Divine love spreads the peace, not the feverishness. One with divine love radiates contentment.
    • Don't think love is all the time crying..."oh I can't live without you etc..". Love is not just an emotion. Love is not just an emotional drama.
    • We get carried away with all the emotional junk. There is nothing wrong to be emotional. But the higher form of the love is of the nature of peace. All the drama in relationship is to get the attention of partner. And all the melodrama is to attain love.
    • There is no seeking, wanting, lacking in divine love.
    • It is steady and content; a pleasant blissful vibration spreads all around.
    • Even firm actions can be part of love eg even scolding can come out of love and bliss. in fact it shows that how deep the love is.
    • Don’t depend on external expression of love. We have to experience the love through heart not through head.
