“What you call the personality is an inflexible accumulation of emotive images. The real personality appears in your stillness only when you need it and disappears when the situation no longer calls for it. It is flexible without a periphery. It is multidimensional, free from psychological interference. When you are called upon to be a mother, a father, a lover, a student, a teacher, a fighter, you are these temporarily, but they do not remain as a state you identify with. Then there is love, there is affection without affectivity.” LoveEmotionPersonalityAffectionNondualityVedantaTranspersonal Book:Who Am I?: The Sacred Quest Source: Who Am I?: The Sacred Quest
“Emotion integrates but emotivity isolates. So free yourself from affectivity. In this absence of emotivity, you may have the impression at first that you become indifferent. But very soon you’ll see that there is really affection for your surroundings. Emotion, affection, is giving.” GivingEmotionYogaAffectionGenerosityBlissCommunionNondualityVedanta Book:Who Am I?: The Sacred Quest Source: Who Am I?: The Sacred Quest
“You want me to talk about love, to give you a hold, something to feel, to admire or obtain. I will not give you a straw to grasp, and in this emptiness you will be taken by yourself. You are love so don’t try to be a lover.” LoveAffectionOnenessNondualityTrue SelfDivine LoveVedanta Book:Who Am I?: The Sacred Quest Source: Who Am I?: The Sacred Quest
