What Is Love?
What more provocative question could we possibly pose than "What is Love"? This question has been in all of our minds at some time. We offer an answer from the Messages from God, beautiful communions with God through mystic Yael Powell during 35 years of daily meditations (www.circleoflight.net).
We are told through the Messages that Love is an actual substance of very high vibration, the substance from which all things are made, the Body of God, if you will. The Messages say, "...you have never thought of Love this way... What is Love? Love is the nature of My being, and you (and all Creation) are within Me, made of the very substance that I am."
Imagine yourself as a beautiful, vaporous, luminous cloud, constantly changing shape and always in movement. The ongoing movement of Love is always generating Light, and this Light infuses everything with the experience of consciousness, awareness of self and life in all its forms. In higher vibrational levels than Earth, this movement of Love creates ongoing feelings of joy, ecstasy, euphoria, bliss continually.
We on Earth tend to think of Love differently, as an energy or a feeling or an experience isolated from the rest of our experiences. This is because life on Earth is moving at a very slow vibrational rate. This slowed down movement of Love gives the appearance of density and solidity in our bodies and other life forms which are not actually solid but very slowly moving molecules.
In the density of life on Earth, the movement of Love is slowed down. It actually becomes congealed and needs some action or activity to get it moving again, to return it to its natural fluid state. An analogy is made to butter which can become hard in the refrigerator and requires heat applied to melt it once again.
So, What is Love? The natural signposts of Love – wherever it may appear -- are those feelings of delight, ecstasy, warmth, joy, tenderness, closeness, deliciousness of life that we all have experienced at some time in our lives. The more we can introduce these feelings into our lives, the more Love can flow through our hearts with its natural movement, generating more and more of itself.. There are many ways to do this: meditation, anything that lifts us into a spiritual feeling, being in Nature, grooving on art or beauty. All the different ways we can raise our vibration can create a state of subdued ecstasy to stay with us as we move through the world.
At Circle of Light we especially encourage giving our focus to the opening of the heart. There are many tools and suggestions at our website, www.circleoflight.net. What is Love? The truth is that Love is who we are in our nature, and how we are meant to live. When we are in touch with the Love within us, we bless everyone around us and contribute to the change in our world to a world of only Love.
