Falling in love..

peace be upon you Alpha
There you go astray
Yeah, that happens a lot. '(
KNOWING COMES FROM EXPERIENCE and not from knowledge!
Agree.
Love as opposed to hate is that of EGO. It belongs to the workd of duality.
Love as divine passion arises when self-interest falls and there is interest without cause!
But can't love be defined as an emotion?
like we love something or someone which is bad for us. That's not healthy, is it?
Love, as in the absense of ego, I have experienced.
But, I don't know. I'm confused! -

Peace Joe, all,
In my experience, love of family/friends and love of one's spouse/future--spouse is the same thing with the obvious addition of physical attraction. In both cases, love is fueled by compassion and/or passion. When someone I love is in pain, then I am in pain. This is not a decision and it is truly unconditional. And this is far different from emotion because any emotion can be turned off with the right channeling of focus. But love cannot be ignored nor turned off nor turned on. Once you've tapped into it, it's always there.
Peace,

That doesn't help, Khalil!
lol ahahah hi phoenix.
I think love is a state, and i think it is the state of the universe. I think that that state is acceptance and allowance and appreciation, think about it, if the universe did not accept any of your choices then you would not exist nor would anyone else, for the seed cant flower with a foot atop its entrance.
There fore it is a state of being and not an emotion, but like all things, it is realized when experienced through the emotions. Being in the state of love then 'sets you up' to reception and connection with the universe, it is like installing satellite internet phoenix. D
I think that it starts with the mind, because the mind is like the cell wall surrounding our cells; it regulates what enters and leaves the cell, our mind regulates what enters and leaves our heart, if we are to caught up in lesser pursuits then of a sure it will be hinder our development of a blossoming heart.
And then when comes relationships of interaction, with family, friend and lover, those connections with those individuals become stronger. It is really it, think about what is symbolizeed when you are born here, the umbilical cord, your connection to your source of life(your mother)is severed at birth, thats the fall and connecting is the return.
peace,

Okay, I tried to resist before but no more I say.
Falling in love is hard on the knees...
What is love? Baby, don't hurt me!
Love is only a feeling, drifting away...
Love's a game of easy come and easy go...
Love bites, love bleeds, love lives, love dies, love begs, love pleads...
D I just saw this post and the first thing that came to my mind was this song by Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman in Moulin Rouge;Ewan
Love is a many splendored thing
Love lifts us up where we belong
All you need is love
Nicole
Please don't start that again
Ewan
All you need is love
Nicole
A girl has got to eat
Ewan
All you need is love
Nicole
She'll end up on the street
Nicole

Love is just a game... -

Hi Zein,
I saw that movie (the one with Bruce Willis) from which your avatar is taken...To be honest, I did not understand the story (Abrar must be right about the IQ thing!)...Is this character in your avatar the same charatcter that appears later on in the movie with a face change?

The charactor's name was Marv, he's the guy who had the ugly face from the beginning, but he was also the toughest guy among all the tough guys. musclePeace

...Now to explain the indvidual being righteous/true believer, is the one who takes care of oneself, who looks in good condition because they eat well and keep away from bad foods/drugs etc, they are not idle, they work or do excersise, maintain the body etc. so thus they attain the looks of being in good condition, and atraction is part of true love, then obviously the inside of the person is also good as they are a true beliver and good hearted.
Now they are equiped in attaining true love with a similair partner, iam not saying they have to be perfect, as no ones perfect, but the more of those qualities one has the more of reaching a higher level of true love as it were.
When i look for a partner, i look for those qualities, of course the looks and the beauty of the women will be taken into account, because as i have mentioned i want a women that takes care of her self phsyically. iam not going to consider a women thats very obese, because she doesnt care about her body, all she does is eat greasy junk food and sits down all day !!
Wow. You can tell whether or not someone is a righteous, true "beliver" by whether or not they look good, how much "excersise" they perform, and how much they weigh? My English translation of the Koran must have skipped over that part. Please post the quotes from your copy where it says that. I'm just dying to see it!
My attraction to the opposite sex is usually influenced by the quality of a man's mind and intelligence. His ability to spell is especially taken into account.
I wish you the best of luck in finding a woman who takes care of herself "phsyically" to your satisfaction. ;D

Salam.
Ever since i have fallen in love with my gorgeous one, i have discovered that love is something a person cannot even describe or click on and off. Love is ... well, i guess every person must wait until s/he falls in love and you'll see what i'm talking about.
Peace.
