You say you want to experience unconditional love?
There is a thought that we ought to love unconditionally:
That is, in itself, conditional.
Unconditional love
Allows everything,
Including conditionality.
Unconditional Love is a universal "Yes",
Without any conditions,
Without any conditioning.
Are you sure you can embrace something that large?
Not with your mind, you won't.
Unconditional love Is What-Is .....
The space that holds and sustains us
Through every experience.
Everything we have ever experienced
Has happened because we wanted that experience.
But sometimes we get caught up in a negative emotion,
Judge our experience
And shut down on it.
But that's our doing -- not God's
Whatever the experience is,
Unconditional Love says "Go for it;
That's OK,
And you're OK for wanting it."
If we could get that,
Guilt would be gone
Along with the rest of the dinosaurs.
Does that scare you?
What would the world be like without guilt --
Without some "Thou shalt not's"?
How would you know?
Have you ever lived in a world without guilt?
Without "No's"?
I have, many times, fleetingly.
What does it feel like....?
Free.
Happy.
Responsible.
Appropriate.
In love...........
And then I return to live
In this conditional world,
I take up the challenge to "let it be".
Who was it who said "How come you're trying to remove a splinter from your neighbour's eye
While you've got this bloody great plank stuck up your arse"?
I know that Unconditional Love begins and ends
With me.
I start with continually relaxing around
The condition that I think ought to be unconditional.
