A heart without love is a cemetery. Love demonstrates the existence of the Divine. It is all-pervasive. It is the basis for human unity. Only when selfishness goes, and faith in the Divine grows, will human unity be achieved. Hence, every human being should fill his heart with love. God is love; Love is God. Love is linked to love. When one is full of love, He is qualified for the state of Non-dualism or oneness with God (Poem). It is most vital for everyone to recognise and practice this Love Principle. This Love exists in good and bad, in the forest and in a palace, in attachment and in separation, in one’s conduct as well as in one’s speech, in the mind as well as in action. It is all-pervasive. The most powerful weapon to destroy the forces of evil rampant in the world today is love. Unfortunately, men are not pursuing the right path to acquire this sacred love. Love is the seed of love. It is also the branch, the flower, and the fruit! To enjoy the fruit of love, one must practice love!
