What is Love? If everything is permeated with love except man (how do we know and experience outside us what love is?), how can we talk about what we do not perceive? Even how can we relate to love if freedom of action is not given and determination is peforming our actions? Is this comment not a bit black-white painting and the reality less dramatic than potrayed? The question is: How can we effort to tell everybody that love = pure bestowal = comes from the creator = is a universal law = connects everything with everything = makes it possible to drop / overcome egoism = inspires for self bestowal (on human level) and leads us to "unlogical" self-dedication with the power to make oneself gift, bestowal towards the environment, but depicted with our "creator" and by dedicating ourselves we also dedicate our "creator" - and here we are back at the beginning - but richer and connected with the origin - is it not like this? <<… it can be compared to a dramatic love story where the lovers (man and the Creator) aspire toward each other (through bestowal)…>> – what dramatic love story if we do not know what love overall is?
