In a world that is already confusing for many, overloaded with information for a large number of people and filled with “happenings” all the time across the globe, we add to our woes by giving the written word even more authority, often a prominence higher than our own experience/s. You see words are the basics and fundamental formation of the basis of the “illusionary” nature of the universe. We comprehend and begin composing words right when we are 1.5 to 2 years old. From our ultimate and merged bliss (which is the state a baby comes into), we formulate and “learn” words and through that we slowly and steadily learn to form coherent thoughts and form ideas and concepts and plans and strategies. Now while nothing is wrong with all of that; we forget in the process that “words” are just “words”. They are not the thing actually i.e. we can say the name of the fruit “orange”, but the word “orange” is not the fruit – the fruit is the fruit (not the word orange, got it?). The word “orange”  is our mental approximation/label of what the thing “orange” is. The fruit/thing orange can only be known when you hold it, touch it, eat it and taste its juice in your mouth. The word “orange” is still not the fruit; it’s just the word – it can connote all of that (taste, juiciness, orange flavor) etc., but it’s still just a word.

A much abused and over used term – love. Most shy away from using this term. And in the corporate world, this term does not even come up. How can we talk about love, amongst profits, markets, shareholders, stakeholders, growth rates, HR models and hierarchies. Wouldn’t that make you a “softy”, perhaps even a “flake”?

Now, that would be the case, if one were talking about love within the context of its most common associations – romantic love, family love, love within the context of a single or sometimes multiple relationships, love to the country or even love for the world. But there is another kind of love present in the depths of your being. For the sake of a name lets call it POWER LOVE. This love, when experienced is literally “EARTH SHATTERING” and can penetrate the very fabric of your blood. This love, gives you the intuitive understanding of the universe, its principles, its knowledge and its mysteries. It’s the love that enables you to see breathing God in every being, in every thing. Few have experienced POWER LOVE, but those who have, have experienced a deep inner movement, a current that connects them to the universal.
