There is nothing but Love

 “Love has the power to open the door of eternal life. By contemplation how far can we pierce through life? One, two, or three planes, then we must stop, but the nearest way of all is by love and devotion, for it is God's way, and God is Love. God cannot be deceived -- God will not be deceived. When anyone has taken this way it is by the God in him. And as we give all things they come back to us through love. The more we give, the more comes back. Love has its limitations when it is directed to limited beings, but love that is directed to God has no limitations, God alone deserves all love, and the freedom of love is in giving it to God.” Hazrat Inayat Khan

In the center of your being, a perennial fountain of love springs forth. This is the Real, the Absolute, the divine Grace that is the source and the substance of all things. This is your greatest treasure, your key to immortal bliss. Drink but one sip of this fountain and nothing else will matter any more.

Love exists as itself in harmonious perfection, radiant as the sun, self-effulgent, ever untainted, blissful. Always shining in the heart of every living creature, love is all-pervasive, indestructible, infinite and eternal. Love is God.

You can never know or understand or interpret love. You can only be love. Fortunately, this is who you really are always.

Your true being is covered by layer upon layer of form that you have been conditioned to identify with. You are not mind or thoughts or feeling, not bones or blood or skin. You are the innermost perceiver, the one who sees through your eyes and hears through your ears and breathes through your nose. You are the observer of the play of thoughts and actions and the objects of this world. You are the core of absolute awareness that gives this body life.

Unfortunately, all your attention is diverted outwards, to the objects of your mind and this world. Focus your entire attention on the core of your own being, deep within yourself. This will still the mind and eventually dissolve it, along with all your biological, psychological and emotional conditioning. The non-existent persona disappears as the drop becomes the ocean - Love alone remains.

The truth shines forth in all its glory: nothing but Love exists!

“Love alone is the fountain from which all virtues fall as drops of sparkling water. Love is given to inspire divine love in the heart of man, and all the beauty that man sees on earth is beauty created by the power of love, and by the power of love he learns to recognize it as a reflection of the beauty of heaven. Thus may earth become heaven, and heaven and earth one single vision of the glory of God.” Hazrat Inayat Khan
