Speaker: Have you ever experienced the breathtaking moment of seeing the clouds from above for the first time? Where what seems like an endless ocean of cotton suddenly becomes an open space where you can see the surface of Earth. This transition from a blanket of clouds to the clarity of the ground beneath us serves as a perfect analogy for understanding love.
Speaker: In life, we often navigate through a cloud of perceptions, beliefs, and experiences. Initially, these clouds obscure our view, limiting our understanding of love to what is immediately visible and felt. But every so often, something miraculous happens, a shift in perspective, a moment of vulnerability, or an encounter with beauty.
Speaker: that clears these clouds, allowing us to see love in its truest form. I've realized that love is more than just a connection with another person. It is recognizing the common ground we share with the world around us and with everybody else. It is in the movies that moves us, the speakers that inspire us,
Speaker: and even the simple beauty of a sunset or a baby's smile, when love transcends, the boundaries between self and other.
Speaker: But what if love is more fundamental to our being than what we've been led to believe? What if instead of seeking love outside ourselves or depending on others for happiness, we recognize that we are at our deepest core, love itself. This perspective shifts the narrative from being in love with somebody to experiencing love with somebody.
Speaker: It's about finding ourselves in others and realizing our inherent oneness. This realization opens up a profound possibility, the ability to experience love not just with a select few, but with everyone and everything around us. It suggests that love isn't about attachment for another person, but about recognizing the love that we fundamentally are.
Speaker: When I listen to amazing music, when I see a beautiful landscape or when I laugh with my friends, I feel something. I feel something very positive. Actually, it feels like love, right? In contrast, when I'm anxious or angry,
Speaker: I cannot feel it. I'm completely in my mind. I'm just looking at the clouds. I cannot see with clarity what is really happening around me. And I cannot see with clarity who I am. I'm pretty sure that love is not a goal. It's not an achievement. It's not something that happens after I perform some tasks.
Speaker: If love is who we are fundamentally, that changes everything because in order to be happy, we just need to realize who we really are. I want to express my gratitude to Rupert Spira for the inspiration and the teachings.
Speaker: And I would like to express my thanks to Sandra and Daurin for the deep conversations we had a few days ago.
