Love

[Dawood Ibrahim]

A reader of mine has asked me to write on love! Ah love: What a beautiful feeling isn’t it? Suddenly the world changes, dark clouds become bright sky, gloomy days become joyful, and quiet men and women get swept away in a form of ecstatic madness!
I have seen shy men or women with no confidence in themselves suddenly strutting around like kings and princesses! All, because someone has returned the love they’ve given. But, and this is a huge but, I have seen same love turning to dislike and then hate.
Very often this happens after the couple have tied the knot. It’s too late to get out now, and the same sunny days become gloomy and sunshine turns to dark clouds. The reasons are many, but one of them is when we fall in love with surface beauty and not inner beauty.
Surface beauty is what most advertisements talk about nowadays: Fairer skin, no pimple face, or even plastic surgery for nose, or lip correction! It’s all there and for a few thousand rupees you can change from an average looking person to a beautiful or handsome man or woman.
That’s the outer or surface beauty, and unfortunately most of us fall for that; the tall, dark and handsome dude, the fair, beautiful girl!
But beauty fades, tall, thin dudes become fat and heavy, and we who fell for looks and beauty are left holding memories of the same.
So stop looking at the surface, look inside the other person for inner beauty! Look for wisdom, and peace and compassion. Search inside for understanding and goodness, and that’s a beauty that lasts.
You will rarely find one with inner beauty being dragged to court for a divorce. That’s a beauty that is loved and cherished. That’s a beauty that embraces and hugs and loves through the years, in sickness and in hard times. Love someone who has that kind of beauty! Also love someone who loves God!
Yes, there will be days of great trouble as you go along in life, but when both of you love God, you can take those troubles to God in prayer and immediately feel and see the difference in your relationship! God binds love together. God is the third person in a marriage, but unlike most third persons in a marriage, God brings the couple together.
Love! Like Shakespeare said, ‘Is a many splendored thing!’ But real love is inner

beauty and a sharing of God in your lives..!

Love is nothing but a chemical reaction that compels animals to breed.

What would you call this?

OP has a narrow view of love ................... limited to choice of person you want to tie a knot with.

When you stay with someone long enough you start to build pattern with it. Be it a motorcycle or a dog or kid.

You are comparing material objects with a kid or even a dog ???

Your own kid right at the time of his / her birth ............ how much time did we spend together at that moment? But still there is an unexplainable feeling ....... a bond.

I think the motorcycle doesn't fit in ............. its a mutual feeling, you may own the motorcycle but God Forbid in an accident like situation you would always worry about your safety first. On the contrary for your kids you won't even hesitate to jump off the cliff.

All are same. What makes you so special? Just because you can realise you exist doesn't make you any special. Going at the atomic level you will realise, you and a motorcycle isn't exactly different, you both share electrons, protons and neutrons.

Your own kid right at the time of his / her birth ............ how much time did we spend together at that moment? But still there is an unexplainable feeling ....... a bond.

I think the motorcycle doesn't fit in ............. its a mutual feeling, you may own the motorcycle but God Forbid in an accident like situation you would always worry about your safety first. On the contrary for your kids you won't even hesitate to jump off the cliff.

that bond you are talking is exactly what its called chemical pattern. Whenever you think about something, a pattern of electrical responses fire through your brain, and if it releases serotonin, you will again start to think about it, just repeating this sequence again and again, giving you more pleasure. This is why when you become cocaine addict you don't care about your anything because cocaine provides more pleasure than that.

Some of the best moments in my life when I became uncle and holding my niece. And this year when i became father it didn't take years it but at the same time my love started for my son

There is no difference between a cocaine addict (when is under the influence of cocaine) and the motorcycle, obviously you don't expect reaction from an unconscious thing.

You are trying to equate living emotions with chemical reactions (though you may be rightly pointing to how nature has it incorporated in our systems) ............. if it’s only because of that chemistry try inducting it in nonliving objects e.g. motorcycle ……. But the result… would it be the same?

You need a soul to love.

There is nothing called SOUL. You die and you cease to exist, period. There is nothing more than that. Human beings always feared this "existential crisis" thus came up with concepts like God, heaven and other imaginary stuff.

 

[barbarosa]

There are three kinds of love.
permanent love.
temporary love.
sexual love.
1 -Love with father Mother Brother Sister Son Daughter,etc.
2 -Love with animals or its kids.
3 -Illegal thoughts for others.

Okay for a second lets take your argument....... may be there is nothing like soul, its all fear and made up stories. I understand you believe in nothing but then again how do you convince that all this symmetry this business of order in universe is a coincidence and nothing, if it was all nothing, one day your motorbike should start walking on its stand out of nothing ................. why nothing happens that is out of ordinary when its all nothing?

Wrong, I believe in only one TRUTH according to the vedas, and that is death. No matter who you are hindu, muslim, sikh, christian, jew, buddhist, rich, poor, dumb, intelligent anyone...we will all face the same truth and that is Death.
"Ekam sat vipra bahudha vadanti" - Truth is one; people call it in various names. I still remember this quote from a grave "ana toh yehi tha ab tak bhatak raha tha".
Coming to the point of symmetry, order in universe and other stuff, we cant even find the exact position of a moving object, uncertainty principle, what made you believe what we see, feel and think is not chaos ?
