God Is Love

Aum Sairam

God is love and love is God," says Sri Sai. But what is love? Love is a word that is hopelessly misused and misunderstood. Does not love basically signify a need of some kind, your love of this person of that thing to satisfy your need? The love between a man and woman satisfies the need, each for the other, whether it be physical, or companionship, or comfort, or another need. If there is no longer any need, love can turn to indifference, perhaps even hatred. Why do people, married or otherwise, change partners so often, for the simple reason, that they no longer seem to satisfy each other's particular needs.

LOVE is the most misused word in our common verbal vocabulary. The bond of love has been existent in all members of the family since families came about - between Husband and Wife it is called 'infatuation'. Love for parents is respect and love for God is devotion.
