A wise man does not love and hence does not need love. This is an esoteric statement indeed! A wise man is connected to the param-atma. The nature of param-atma is ever-joyful and the epitome of love. Thus, the wise have united with the source of love within. Love is already invoked and hence they need not search it outside. Their love is so content that they even don't require an object to express that love. Unlike material love, spiritual love or true love is a mutual communication between the soul and the super-soul (atma and param-atma). It is not a relationship between two individuals but is an expression exhibited by one individual in two forms, to bring about variegatedness. It is the sweet bond he relishes every moment in life. It does not need any external catalyst for its fulfillment. He has reserved his heart with love and is not focused on the object as there love becomes both, the subject and object. In material love, the heart of two individuals is heavily clou...

The values of a spiritual man are in the people he loves. You might now think... 'But this is even applicable to a material man.' But,it is NOT. Love as expressed by a material man is a reflection of his mind. His love is another expression for his own insecurity and fear. He loves, to satisfy his needs and requirements.  Love towards his children to satisfy his Ego, towards his wife to satisfy his bodily and emotional requirements, towards his parents for mental well being, etc. On the other hand a spiritual man does not love anybody, neither his relatives nor friends. He bears a neutral vision towards everybody (friends, relatives, stranger, etc). He is not bound to the material expressions of love. He does not love a person but his qualities. He is not attracted by the physical beauty but the spiritual values . He loves the values within the person. Thus, another expression is that: The people he loves are embodiment of his values. They are the spiritual rep...

God and the world can termed as opposites. When God is the subject, world becomes the object or when God is divine, the world is thoroughly mundane. In fact there exists only these two realities, God and World, where God is spiritual and the world is material. God and the world can never go hand in hand just like night cannot approach day. Either day has to make way for night or the other way round. Both cannot be experienced together. Thus, only one has significance for man. Similarly, one practicing spirituality a sadhaka must be extremely conscious of the illusory world around. He must never give up his spiritual discipline at any cost. Every material circumstance is the projection of the mundane mind which is the weapon used by Maya devi to deviate one from the goal. One must be steadfast and realize that God is the master and the world, (which includes us) is the servant. Just like: The man outside the well can only help the one who is stuck inside it.... Only God, who i...

Success in the material world signifies excess wealth, fame, assets, high status in society, etc. But, look carefully! Every attribute of success can be overtaken by its opposites. Wealth by Poverty, Fame by Disgrace, and Success (as a whole) by Failure. A person, aiming to become successful is indeed shortsighted. People feel that success is the ultimate Goal of Life. We must first understand the meaning of 'ultimate', before we conclude the 'Ultimate Goal of Life'. Ultimate means superior or the goal with no comparisons. Going deeper to define it, brings us to the conclusion that, the ultimate goal of life is the one having no flipsides. Our goal should be flawless, having no opposites unlike success. Successful people are never successful as everybody in this material world meet failure either in the social, intellectual, physical or emotional platform. Unless we leave the rat race, we can never be successful. True success is when you leave success as that w...
