I do get some insightful people asking
insightful questions at times, is not love the universal answer?

Very
good question Charlene, is love the universal answer? A question related to
this is, is love the ultimate state? To refer to love being the universal
answer is stating that love is the ultimate state to all other states. To
perceive this takes the separation of energy, an ultimate state separate from
all other states.
What
part of us separates energy? Ego, for only through the ego can energy be
separated into higher and lower forms of energy. The egoless self perceives no
separation for there is no separation in this state therefore no universal
answer or ultimate state, it is simply energy or if you like of God.
Yes,
to the ego that is aware there is a perceived universal answer therefore an
ultimate state above all other states. This is how the ego in control works,
there has to be an ultimate state of pleasure for the pleasure of the ego.
Also,
everyone has a different perception of what love is, even unconditional love.
How many multinationals have an absolute unconditional love of power and money,
they will do anything to acquire this, even to the extent of destroying the
planet. This is purely unconditional, where even the conditions of the planet are
ignored. In truth, there is no difference between unconditional love of
spiritually aware people and multinational, it is all to do with serving the
ego in control, for it's all to do with what makes us feel good. Pleasing the
ego above all else no matter what.
I
know this is hard to perceive but all of what is, is the ultimate state, in a
sense, to the egoless self. Yes, as our egos become aware, our ego will feel
powerful feelings of love, what the ego does with this from then on will make a
difference. The ego out of control will often only desire to see this state as
being some ultimate state, above all
other states. What occurs most often in this state? The separation of our
egos from anything negative, negative to our egos feeling good, it is all about
the pleasure of our controlling egos.
I can
be in any environment and still feel blissful, as a lot of us are at present
within this kind of chaotic reality. This isn't because of separating good from
bad, positive from negative, like a lot of people are trying to do to sustain
this state, it is to do with humbling myself to the negatives as of the
positives without separation or desire. I don't have a desire to be only of
positive or of an ultimate state; all I try to express is balance and a state
of the absence of the abuse of energy. If the rest of my environment is not of
my own or accepting of my environment, so be it, it is what it is.
Yes,
without effort, the ego can find itself in a loving blissful environment, at no
time in this environment is this state perceived as an ultimate state or
universal answer, it is simply a state of the absence of the abuse of energy.
Of course to the ego that is experiencing the abuse of energy, this state of
the absence of the abuse of energy will seem like an ultimate state.
Sorry
Charlene for such a long answer.
___________________________
We do this so often, anything that makes
the ego feel more powerful, secure and makes us feel good inside, is often
given some kind of God status, an absolute state of desire. As money and power
are given a God status by materialists, unconditional love is given a God
status by various western spiritually aware people. What is with this God
status in relation to unconditional love, especially considering unconditional
love is a very small part of the process of becoming aware? They
are still fumbling in the dark for they obviously know not what they do. Is
this because our egos so often attaches itself to a God like status symbol? All
other awareness to this God status symbol is negative and should be denounced
in some way, even when the awareness comes from actual experiences and
occurrences!! Actually, any awareness that goes beyond a God status symbol is
often scorned the most, especially if supported with actual experiences,
occurrences and supporting data.
This is like the perception of good
battling it out with evil, this is clearly an ego perception of good against
bad. Good in this case is given a God like status symbol by the ego. Evil simply cannot exist within the presence of good, a pure aware state or a state of God.
Good in this case simply means awareness compared to ignorance. Evil, being
bad, is simply a state of ignorance; imagine how a state of deliberate
ignorance would react to a state of pure awareness. There is no battle for only
the ego can battle itself out with itself, in other words go to war with
itself. To the ego, there is a good and bad for only can the ego separate
energy like this. What you have in this case is a partially aware consciousness
battling it out with an ignorant conciseness. Of course only being particularly
aware means we are still abusing energy, this of course, to the ego, means we
are only partially good.
Look at this way, once you become aware,
how hard is it to then become unaware? The only way to become unaware is to
manipulate energy, in other words abuse energy to serve a desired state, or, to
create a God like status symbol that keeps us unaware of anything more. I have
experienced this myself, evil, in other words ignorance, cannot exist within
the presence of a state of pure awareness, unless the state of pure awareness
is manipulated. Of course being aware to this degree is the awareness of how
energy is manipulated, as a lot of people today are obviously aware. Yes,
conscious states of ignorance are at war with the good, but, a pure state of
awareness is not at war with ignorance (evil). If the ego has to perceive a God
like status symbol, like unconditional love, let it be a state of pure
awareness instead, or if you like, a true state of God for ignorance has no
status in this state.
