LOVE AND DETACHMENT
God is teaching us the art of loving. He is the Bestower, He is the
Ocean of Love and He is willing to give us so much. But first I have
to learn the art of detachment, otherwise I won't have the right
to claim His love.
Detachment is a talent as well as an art. It is developed through soul
consciousness which, together with a deep relationship with God,
will keep me from being deceived by the attraction of limited love.
It means to be so centered in the consciousness of my true spiritual
nature that there is a natural, automatic rejection of adverse
personality traits within me and illusionary attractions around me.
Detachment allows me to be unaffected by these and so able to
continue cultivating the values and virtues of my
spiritual personality.
God is willing to give us all His love, but if the first condition of
detachment is not met we will not be able to receive it. Turning my
eye in any other direction will block the truth and finish my
progress. It's a very strong pre-requisite.
