True love is when u discover u r a spiritual being having a human experience and than spending yr rest of your life living in his will and longing to meet him.
Great point Sanjib – i’m going to start quoting myself more!
Also if you truly understand god conciousness you’ll know that there is no one “else” we’re a part of the same conciousness. So if someone says they’re happier without you just laugh because being without you they would lose themself.
In the same instance you are just a reflection of their god conciousness, so just by saying “i’m happier without you” means they need you to make that belief true inside themself.
When someone is truly happy “without” (using that term lucidly) you, they dont need to say it, they just move on.
For me True love is the love with no expectations, no conditions attached, so no fear of losing… and you are complete with your love and what a wonderful, blissful state of mind !!!
…absolutely…and that “someone” should not necessarily be limited to just any one person in particular, going beyond just the friend/companion/spouse/family member. If we search within ourselves that ‘total love’ is for even the neighbour, the community, the country, the world, for all that is in this creation–because love is the nature of our consciousness–it’s THE material of which everything is made up…the very brick and cement of our nature!
wow!! great thought…love it.. unconditional love neither felt by all nor it can be for all… it is just beyond the levels of understanding if we think from mind.. just a pure and genuine heart can feel such love for another pure and loving soul..
total true love has to be experienced inside one’s own self
- without which you cannot even understand what it is to make someone else happy, and what you are thinking will make them happy today can make them very sad later…
and the state of not expecting anything in return also is a fallacy because true love which has tasted inner union will seek to share it with reciprocative selves…
even the greatest of Gurus’ need to be given Gurudakshina…
in true love,there is just love and there is no two……and there is no someone else and to reach that state of conciousness is a great blessing and comes only through Divine grace…….
Sanjib……. very well said…. But its not that easy for every individual to think and do like this…. Bcos, my views are little different as what I feel is that this is Human Nature where, at times, Expectaions matters a lot….
i dont agree with this….there are some people who think like this and waste all their life for the happiness of some stupid people who are not worth spending time for…..in true love there is no other….it is just Being Thy Self…..and in that state of consciousness there are no expectations from anyone and do whatever is required and whatever is right without attachment to yourself or the other person…..
Love doesn’t mean to win someone,,
But It means to lose yourself for someone..
It is not done by the excellence of mind’..
But
It is done by the purity of heart…!!
Very true……….but being humans we do want love in return…:) Even Saints were not able to come out of this MAYA……:) that’s y Its said Maya…tu Mann Mohini )
contd… I love Guruji but some where I always want Guruji to be with me always … show me the right path… same kind of expectations from you too….. Pls answer me…
YES, love without expectation is very difficult but in my opinion it is not impossible…..to attain this state which I call a state of complete happiness…… we have to be in complete peace and harmony with ourselves and the most important ….believe in ourselves….sadhna makes it easy….!
guys they say if its real then we will get far more than we expect…the key is in not expecting….but at the same time its real tuff to not expect n there is no other way to love ! *dillemma
Indeed this is the highest form of love! ” true love is to live for someone else’s happiness”–it’s so beautiful and has such complete surrender to the ‘totality’ of creation in it….
Yet life is not linear and demands wisdom. Just a day or so ago an amazing sutra from you spoke about balancing innocence with intelligence and here i feel is another example of just that. balancing unconditional love with intelligence and wisdom is of the essence! Krishna speaks of the same in the Gita too–of not being foolish. we can love unconditionally, but sometimes situations demand more sagacity. if a thorn hurts it’s wise to move away from it & let it be true to its nature so that we can continue to be true to ours…live and let live, love and continue to let others be:):)
Lovely !!! Love is Love ,if it is there you Cant Resist it to flow from here to there irrespective of what you are getting in return ,regardless of Breaking of Expectations,and it is Courageous enough to let it Keep flowing ,Keep Giving ,keep taking Care n Keep wishing the Best for the One whom you love beyond Measures and Always Giving Precious and Unique Special feel to Your Loved Ones ♥
Or say True Love is to live for someone else’s happiness totally.But its difficult to avoid the emotions arises in the form of expectations.As we know wht we give cms back to us,so keep giving ur Love and it’ll be return back to U in double amount.Lovely thought Sanjib Ji.Thnx .:)
Yeah, very true and I agree with you…. Real love begins where nothing is expected in return..:)
nd wht to do when u realise dat they r more happy without u??????
@ Rashmi : Smile and move on and enjoy life !!!
Pure love is a willingness to give without a thought of receiving anything in return…..:)
yes without expectation love is true love
Totally agree!! With expectation it only becomes selfishness no love left…

True Love is unconditional,
wow so many beautiful thoughts, keep them coming…
I learn so much from reading your views, especially when you speak from the heart like today:)
with Selfless Seva bhav true total love happens…
@Minesh…I liked your point…well explaind!

Loved ur views alpana….
Yess….Absolutely rite…Dada…
Forget Your own happiness by creating little happiness for others…becoz when You are Good to others then You are best to Yourself….
wow!! great thought…love it.. unconditional love neither felt by all nor it can be for all… it is just beyond the levels of understanding if we think from mind.. just a pure and genuine heart can feel such love for another pure and loving soul..
That is called “unconditional love”, a mother’s love for her children is perfect example.

Loved your views too Puja…in fact everyone’s!
Rekhaji thats very well said every1 cant feel unconditional love…….very true indeed…
can one ever feel such fearless love for another human being, or only from an enlightened one?
very true sanjib
in true love,there is just love and there is no two……and there is no someone else and to reach that state of conciousness is a great blessing and comes only through Divine grace…….
very true
Man you post great things on your wall. Why do we name love as real love, fake love, true love or total love.
Love is simple. it is complete in it self.
Doe it need any adjectives?
No not at all
we put so many conditions to accept someone’s love.
any one of us ever tested our own love?
Aww! I experince true love! when some one with love filled in their eyes..smiles!! I just cannot express that!!!very beautiful!!
Still we are adding adjectives to love.
I request all of my beloved philosophers to leave adding adjectives to love
very true.
True love is just love, where expectation is not connected to love.
A state of “expectation” and “no expectation” will not impede love, if they are kept separate.
well said
Truly said. Thank you Sanjib. God bless you!
it is easy to say but verry hard to do ! trust me i have been doing this from last 3 years ! (((((((((((((
