WHAT LOVE REALLY IS??? LOVE IS GOD!!!

Once I was on a journey and someone asked me which word in a man's vocabulary was the most valuable. My reply was, "Love". The man was surprised. He said he had expected me to answer "soul" or "God". I laughed and said, "Love is God."
Raising on the ray of love one can enter the enlightened kingdom of God. It is better to say that love is God than to say that truth is God, because the harmony, the beauty, the vitality and the bliss that are part of love are not part of truth. Truth is to be known; love is to be felt as well as known. The growth and perfection of love lead to the ultimate merger with God.
The greatest poverty of all is the absence of love. The man who has not developed the capacity to love lives in a private hell of his own. A man who is filled with love is in heaven. You can look at man as a wonderful and unique plant, a plant that is capable of producing both nectar and poison. If a man lives by hate he reaps a harvest of poison; if he lives by love he gathers blossoms laden with nectar.
If I mold my life and live it with the well-being of all men in mind, that is love. Love results from the awareness that you are not separate, not different from anything else in existence. I am in you; you are in me. This love is religious.
The doors of love only open for the person who is prepared to let his ego go. To surrender one's ego for someone else is love; to surrender one's ego for all is divine love.
Love is not sexual passion. Those who mistake sex for love remain empty of love. Sex is only a passing manifestation of love. It is part of nature's mechanism, a method of procreation. Love exists on a higher plane, and as love grows, sex dissipates. The energy that has been manifested in sex is transformed into love.
Love is the creative refinement of sex energy. And so, when love reaches perfection, the absence of sex automatically follows. A life of love, an abstinence from physical pleasures is called brahmacharya, and anyone who wishes to be free from sex must develop his capacity to love. Freedom from sex cannot be achieved through supression. Liberation from sex is only possible through love.

I have said that love is God. This is the ultimate truth. But let me say as well that love also exists within the family unit. This is the first step on the journey to love, and the ultimate can never happen if the beginning has been absent. Love is responsible for the existence of the family and when the family unit moves apart and its members spread out into society, love increases and grows. When a man's family has finally grown to incorporate all of mankind, his love becomes one with God.
Without love man is an individual, an ego. He has no family; he has no link with other people. This is gradual death. Life, on the other hand, is interrelation.
Love surpasses the duality of the ego. This alone is truth. The man who thirsts for truth must first develop his capacity to love—to the point where the difference between the lover and the beloved disappears and only love remains.
When the light of love is freed from the duality of lover and the beloved, when it is freed from the haze of seer and seen, when only the light of pure love shines brightly, that is freedom and liberation.
I urge all men to strive for that supreme freedom.

HONOR KILLING: A HARSH REALITY OF INDIAN SOCIETY.

Honor killing is the murder of a family member or social group by other members, due to the belief that the victim has brought dishonor to the family or community. The perceived dishonor to the clan is believed to be caused by unacceptable dress codes, marriage of their choice, marriage within same gotra or inter-caste marriage and engaging in sexual acts.
This heinous crime has gained more momentum in the recent past.  Such incidents have been making news headlines across the country. Story of a prince and princess, who loved, married and lived happily, has been a part of everyone’s childhood. But in real life after marriage they do not live happily, but are found as corpses, if they show the audacity of going against the pride and reputation of the family and community. They are punished because they forget that marriage is not for their happiness but one in which community’s happiness is taken care of.
Love your parents, siblings, relatives, friends and everybody is what we are being taught as children, but least does the victims know that what they had been taught since childhood will turn out to be their cause of death.  It is a sheer shame that we talk about love, harmony and unity on one side and ruthlessly stamp them under our feet in the name of reputation and honour.
This is the harsh reality of Indian society. Sociologists believe that these killings continue because of continued rigid caste system. The pseudo-caste status which brings along other benefits for the family and clan pushes them to this crime. Another important lingering point is the mentality of people which has not changed and accepting marriages in same gotra or inter-caste is still considered a sin. The abnormally increasing rate of this crime is mainly due to lack of formal governance in the concerned regions.
Statistics reveal that honor killing has a greater geographical coverage than just being limited to rural areas. Definitely, the rural percentage is predominating but cases in big cities and states like Delhi, Punjab, Haryana, UP and Tamil Nadu also cannot be ruled out.
This bubbling cauldron of inhumanity is mounting as the growing incidence of “honor killings” becomes public. However, it would be infantile to believe that the reported facts and figures talk in entirety. Much has still to be done to safeguard those who dare not speak out.
A lot of things to be done to reform cultural settings, amend the existing laws and add clauses to IPC as separate offense, educate, and provide professional help to those who commit, inspire, and subtly condone this aberration. Violence is endemic in nature and in humankind. What is the answer? The spider continuous to create deadly orb web and, in the process, the cycle continues.
