To begin with, there is nothing that we really need because everything that we perceive that we need is already within us, but we have chosen to ignore that inner Divine voice of Light, Love and Healing. Light Love and Healing are three essential ingredients compiled into the formula of LOVE; pure Divine Love that has no opposite. However, as we begin the journey from barter love to LOVE, immense healing is needed for the Light to be visible and illuminate Love in its inner essence.

Relationships, on the other hand, are based on take it or leave it while residing within the dogma of barter love. Therefore, it is impossible to know true relationships of any gender unless we know love. To know LOVE we must strip ourselves of our paradigms, those limitations that delay our growth and exuberance towards life devoid of the slightest form of illness that ranges from sadness to full-blown hospitalization. We want relationships to improve life on earth; however, we can only experience the powerful beauty of relationships when we know love. Both walk hand in hand and are two manifestations of the experience of LOVE. You cannot know one without the other.

So what is a person to do who wants to experience life in its magical fullness? To meditate. Yes, meditation is the key to tapping into all that is true. You have often heard the cliché that silence is golden; for it is true that you may think. How true? Very!

Hmmm, time to insert a warning that meditation is only effective when one’s life becomes meditation – – – 24/7! Meditation is a state of being through which love is communicated and all aspects of life wonderfully respond with exceptional compliments. Then you know that the words ‘I am in love’ are frivolous impediments that need to be replaced by ‘I am Love’.

It is the silence between the notes that the hidden music releases which then transforms the air, our hearts and minds, especially our reaction to events and situations. Thus, the beauty of life is found in quiet reflection and music resounds. Now is the time to release the beauty that is waiting on the fringes of your heart and to know the magic of LOVE. You see that no matter the confusion or perceived confusion in any situation for if you know LOVE then you are automatically transported beyond limitations releasing the experience of knowing alternatives.

So knowing LOVE is the ultimate experience as it is all an illusion of a mind restricted by limitations and if you desire love and a loving relationship then find the stillness of being so that you can connect with the source. Let me tell you something too that will ease your perplexing thoughts about God and religion. It doesn’t matter one iota what you think of religions and of God for the gift of our free will.

Think of God in terms of Divine Presence, which is more affectionate than the deity who wrings his hands trying to find ways to mock all life on earth. As the Divine Presence is omnipresent, then you know that you never have to go anywhere to communicate because you are already in communion, so let the conversations begin — but most importantly – – – LISTEN.

As you may have already realized, love and relationships will only come and prosper when you listen. Then when they arrive, continue to listen and amazing manifestations will perpetually come to your feet. At this juncture I recommend reading the poems of San Juan de la Cruz as they typify the ethereal essence of LOVE. As you explore the agony and ecstasy of her life and how she transmuted energies to experience LOVE, I know you too will be transformed. Namaste!
