Real love doesn’t make you suffer. How could it? It doesn't suddenly turn into hate, nor does real joy turn into pain.
Eckhart Tolle
Real Love: A Source of Joy, Not Suffering
In a world where relationships often oscillate between moments of joy and bouts of pain, it’s essential to understand the true nature of love. Real love, in its purest form, is a source of joy and peace. It doesn’t make you suffer; it doesn’t suddenly turn into hate, nor does real joy transform into pain.
The Essence of Real Love
Real love is not just an emotion; it’s a state of being. It is deeply rooted in our inner selves, beyond the superficial layers of our thoughts and emotions. When we experience real love, we connect with a profound sense of peace and joy that emanates from within. This love is unconditional and unwavering, not dependent on external circumstances or fleeting feelings.
Love Beyond the Mind
Often, what we perceive as love is entangled with our desires, fears, and expectations. This kind of love is conditional and can easily turn into its opposite—hate or indifference—when those conditions are not met. However, real love transcends these mental constructs. It is a deep, inner connection that remains constant, regardless of external changes.
Joy That Endures
Similarly, real joy is not the same as temporary pleasure. Pleasure is often derived from external sources and is subject to the law of opposites—what brings pleasure today might bring pain tomorrow. Real joy, on the other hand, arises from within and is a reflection of our true nature. It is a state of inner stillness and contentment that persists even amidst life’s challenges.
Cultivating Real Love and Joy
To experience real love and joy, we must look within and cultivate a deeper awareness of our true selves. This involves letting go of our attachment to the mind’s incessant chatter and embracing the stillness that lies beneath. Practices such as mindfulness, meditation, and self-reflection can help us connect with this inner state of being.
Conclusion
Real love and joy are not fleeting emotions but enduring states of being. They do not cause suffering or turn into their opposites. By connecting with our true selves and cultivating inner peace, we can experience the profound and lasting joy that real love brings. Remember, real love doesn’t make you suffer. How could it? It is a beacon of light that guides us through the darkest times, a source of strength and comfort that never fades.
