The Power of Love

Love: Ability to see and know all as one; ability to desire that only good come to all.

The Japanese symbol for love is composed of three elements: at the top is the Paw, in the middle Kokoro or heart, and at the bottom of the kanji is the symbol meaning "to follow." The AI kanji depicts the imprint of the paw in your heart that you follow. It represents a human who evolves, inspired by love and generosity.

Love is the power that keeps your feet moving even when you feel like giving up. Love is the power that gets you up in the morning even when the sky is dark with clouds. Love defeats the failures of the past. Love overcomes the fear of an uncertain future. When you know true love, you know that it has no limits. You can love as much or as little as you want, but the more you love, the more capacity you have to love. We can't define it because it runs through everything, pumping our blood, creating our thoughts, holding the atmosphere to the planet, keeping the stars on fire.

We all have the power of love within us, because it is us. We are love. We may misplace it or misuse it, but we are all entwined by it. This is the true power of love - the realization that we are all connected, united and interdependent.

When you choose the power of love, you choose to understand that we are all manifestations of one spiritual essense.

Love God. Love the Christ within you. Love to love. And love everyone as you love yourself. This is the greatest good thing that you can do for our world.

Then, one of [the Pharisees], who was a lawyer, asked [Jesus] a question, tempting him by saying, "Master, which is the greatest commandment in the law?"
Jesus said unto him,
Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
This is the first and great commandment.
And the second is like unto it; Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
On these two great commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
Matthew 22, 35-40 KJV
