Day 48
Satvik love is unconditional love. “I don’t care what you do to me, but from my side I'm just going to love you. I love because I have no choice. I can't but , because I am love.” This understanding, this tendency that arises from within you, that is satvik love.
From time to time, according to these four different categories of people, these three different types of love manifest in this world. And they can change also. You might have been in tamasik love 10 years back, then you could have come to rajasik, and might have become satvik also.
Wisdom brings you more and more into the satvik type of love. Earlier is always better. Means satvik is better than rajasik, rajasik is better than tamasik. We spoke in the reverse direction it is same thing. Satvik is better than rajasik and rajasik is better than tamasik love.
Similarly the knowledge, the wisdom, the love of a wise person, of a gyani, of an Enlightened, is better than that of a seeker. And a seeker’s love is better than that of one who is craving for some material wealth, who is in pursuit of gaining something. And that is better than those who are miserable.
A person who is miserable cannot hear. The eyes are blocked, they just speak. Someone who is in pursuit of some material comfort, his ears are a little more open, but open only to the subject which he wants. But a seeker, a Spiritual seeker, his eyes and ears are much more open.
A gyani listens to this creation, he listens to silence, he listens to the unspoken words. Any amount of advice or speech given to a miserable person is in vain, because they don't listen to you, isn’t that your experience? If someone is miserable, if you give advice, does he hear you, listen to you? They are just closed.
They have a one track mind, everything just goes above the head. Satvik type of love is better. They all say the same. The earlier one is better than the later one. The question is how to get it, how to have it? This is the easiest path. Love is not a practice. It is just an acknowledgement.
You only have to wake up and feel the sense of belongingness. Whether you do it today, after 10 years, after ten lifetimes, it is up to you. But it doesn’t take any time at all. There is a proverb that says, “It may take some time to pluck a flower from a plant, or even to blink your eye, but it won't take any time to attain Divine love at all. It is instantaneous.
It is so easy, the easiest thing. Don't sit and wait to have a sense of belongingness sometime in the future. You are thoroughly mistaken. If you don’t have a sense of belongingness today, you think it will come after ten years, after five years of doing asanas, pranayama and everything?
You don’t need any other proof. Love itself, is the proof. You don’t have to go and ask someone, “Do I have love in my heart?” Nobody needs to authenticate you. Your knowledge needs an authentication, whether it is correct or not.
Your knowledge needs verification, whether it is authentic or not. Whether your perception is correct or not needs to be told to you by somebody. Your experience has to be told by someone whether it is right or not.
