Orb Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 During a journal session this question came up and as simple as it seems an answer hasn't come up yet 🤔. Quote Mention "Mediocrity is gone. Mind is clear of limitation. I seek no state of enlightenment. Neither do I remain where no enlightenment exists. Since I linger in neither condition, eyes cannot see me. If hundreds of birds strew my path with flowers, such praise would be meaningless." - A Comment on the 8th Ox Herding Picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orb Posted October 1, 2022 Author Share Posted October 1, 2022 My analysis is: "someone" and "love" are thoughts, love can't be felt because Love is being Feeling. The belief that love can be felt is like believing a puppet controls the strings its dangling from. Quote Mention "Mediocrity is gone. Mind is clear of limitation. I seek no state of enlightenment.

Mandy Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 No. You cannot assert into another's experience. Love does not come from you that does not already reside as the core of the other you're trying to make feel it, they have to receive it or simply return to it. It seems that touch and kind words can distract us from thoughts that are resisting what we really are. Other times it only inflames it, especially if we carry the belief that we as a separate self can heal or fix another who is not broken. 😆 Quote Mention Youtube Channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serenity Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 You cannot make someone feel love , but you can act and direct your awareness in a loving way towards someone.
