“Love makes man an ocean, an infinity. Love gives a kind of unboundedness. It helps you know that you are not defined by any limits. It helps you to know that you are not confined by the mind and the body. It helps you to know that you are as vast as the sky. The beauty of love is that it makes you aware of your vastness. That is the first experience of godliness. Love as much as you can. Love as many people as possible. Love not only people, but animals, brids, trees, rocks and stars. Become loving, so whatsoever you do, it should have the flavor of love. Whatsoever you touch it should have the touch of love. Whatsoever you say, you should say it with love. In the beginning it is hard, but make it a meditation. Meditation is an experience of love. Love brings you to the oceanic, to the vast. Then the door to the temple opens, and you enter the real temple, where you will find the real God.”
