Today’s Question by the reader : Susan
I wonder if there is anything like ‘unconditional love’? Why does love cause hurt, if its unconditional?
Definitely there is unconditional love. This love, in its very core, comes from within. It is what moves us in the direction of our true selves.
There’s a beautiful quote in the Upanishads that states:
“In all persons, all creatures, the Self is the innermost essence. And it is identical with Brahman: our real Self is not different from the ultimate Reality called God.”
Be careful when you say that “love hurts” – it is not love that is painful, but its absence.
