Living a Heartfelt, Loving Life

by Baba Shuddhaanandaa Brahmachari

Life is short! Let us live it totally with Love! Whatever we do, let it be full of heart, full of all our passion! Let us explore together the different ways Love manifests in our hearts and how we can learn to live a loving, giving life.

Living a truly loving life starts with love for God or the unseen force that seems to guide the destiny and course of all beings and trillions of solar systems. The mind has to find a higher goal in life, and anchor in the very root of its own existence. It has to slow down, allowing space for peace. It has to allow its emotions to be bridled and offered to one whose grace can uplift the emotion to a state of Divine Love that is unconditional.

As long as one is caught in the trap of human love that is give and take, one cannot rise above this material emotion to the level of spiritual outpouring for the divine union. We all need to first realize that to call God by any name, or no name, we have to purify our minds only to feel its intrinsic peace and tranquility which happens through meditation on the higher light that is the radiance of the divinity.

Love for the divine and channeling all actions and thoughts toward the divine and divinizing every cell of our body to realize the divine is the very purpose of human life. That is the reason whoever has realized that mystical love and ecstasy and surrender has influenced people to walk on the path to true happiness and bliss. They are remembered and worshipped all over the world as their teachings are timeless. We have to follow their footsteps, and regularly read about their lives, sacrifices, self-giving and love toward God, for it is only by loving God with all our heart and soul we will get back our natural rhythm of life. The history of mankind has not a single example of one who cried for God and did not see Him. One who has that vision sees the same truth in all beings and then love happens. When love happens it spreads its fragrance far and wide bringing balance in the lives of many.
