Quotes about Loving

The hours I spend with you I look upon as sort of a perfumed garden, a dim twilight, and a fountain singing to it.  You and you alone make me feel that I am alive.  Other men it is said have seen angels, but I have seen thee and thou art enough.

The lover is a monotheist who knows that other people worship different gods but cannot himself imagine that there could be other gods.

Love has no desire but to fulfill itself.  To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night.  To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving.

Love really is the answer to human problems:  love of oneself, love of others, love of where one is, love of what one is doing, love of nature, love of life, love of the world, love of spirit in all its wonder and splendor. Love sets our energy free. It opens us and puts us in a flow with spirit and life on many levels.  Love is the true secret behind manifestation.

I think that perhaps we always fall in love the very first time we see the man of our dreams, even though, at the time, reason may be telling otherwise, and we may fight against that instinct, hoping against hope that we won't win, until there comes a point when we allow ourselves to be vanquished by our feelings...

What is most important is to go deep into ourselves and discover the loving kindness and compassion of the buddha within - the awakened nature we all possess.

You may have seen people praying to an image as if it had special power. Perhaps they're wishing for the well-being of their family, for material prosperity, or to recover from illness. But this way of practicing faith only leads to a dead end. Buddha images should serve as inspirations to cultivate the infinite loving kindness latent in the buddha within us.

There is no formula or method. you learn to love by loving--by paying attention and doing what one discovers must be done.

The experience of loving is very much a direct response to the experience of being loved

Be true and sincere and loving in your human relationships.

If you hold back on the emotions - if you don't allow yourself to go all the way through them you can never get to being detached, you're too busy being afraid. You're afraid of the pain, you're afraid of the grief. You're afraid of the vulnerability that loving entails. But by throwing yourself into these emotions, by allowing yourself to dive in, all the way, over your head even ,you experience them fully and completely You know what pain is. You know what love is. You know what grief is. And only then can you say, "Alright I have experienced that emotion. I recognize that emotion. Now I need to detach from that emotion for a moment.

“I will live my life as an expression of the principles I believe in: empower, inspire, lead, learn, love, forgive, have faith and live.”

You are, you always have been and you will always be in this same place whether you are aware of it or not.

This place is this eternal now moment. Not as an idea of now, but simply right now.

You find when you stop fighting life that naturally relaxation, openness, loved and loving is all there is. Naturally.

You need to stop the fight. Stop creating that smoke. Only then can life flow without the confusion, frustration and suffering that it appears to be so full of.

I have known the joy and pain of deep friendship. I have served and been served. I have made some good enemies for which I am not a bit sorry. I have loved unselfishly, and I have fondled hatred with the red-hot tongs of Hell. That's living.

I believe our greatest shame is the neglect of our country's children.  The child you don't help today, may grow into the monster that rapes your daughter, sister, mother or shoots a family member for drug money. 

We are Love. We are loveable. We are loved. We Love.
~ Darina Stoyanova ~

All of man’s ills are due to his lack of knowing God within him. The perfection of God’s universe is founded upon its perfection of Balance.
All of man’s ills are caused by toxic poisons generated in his body through unbalance affecting his power of control over the functions of his electric body.
Man, as an extension of God, is creator of his own electric body. He is master of his electric body to the extent of his knowing the Light of God in him.
... God says to man: »What I do, ye shall do«, but man is unbelieving for long ages.
(Walter Russell, The Message of the Divine Iliad, p. 129)

No Agenda, Serious Intent

"I am the Lover. I am the Beloved. I am the Loving. I am the Love."

Maybe Rumi said something like this. I don't recall. The more I contemplate this quote, the more profound it becomes as an experience. I have been using and contemplating it for several years. It conveys to me that Love is inherent in the nature of Reality, and for me there is no excuse for feeling lonely or unloved.

When I speak the truth, it gives me such joy. When I speak with love, it gives me such joy. When I do things with love, it gives me such joy inside. The intention of the enlightened one is action based on pure morality and the highest integrity because that is the natural state of being...To be selfless is your natural state of being. To be loving is your natural state of being. To be compassionate is your natural state of being. Come to your natural state of being.

The clear bead at the center changes everything.
There are no edges to my loving now.

I've heard it said there's a window that opens
from one mind to another,
But if there's no wall, there's no need
for fitting the window, or the latch.

The reveries of two solitary souls prepare the sweetness of loving.

Don't set up barriers It's useless My unsheathed heart Hurtles toward you

I think everybody longs to be loved and longs to know that he or she is lovable and, consequently, the greatest thing that we can do is to help somebody know that they are loved and capable of loving.

What are you being? What are you choosing to be? Is it loving? Is it caring? Healing?You can be more of that no matter what you are doing. Yet, the magic of it is, the more of that your are BEING, the more what you are DOING will fall perfectly into place to allow you to "be" even more of that!Trust this process. It works.You will discover that forms - physical ways to "be" a thing - will suddenly start to just "show up".Beingness becomes form.

You know quite well deep within you, that there is only a single magic, a single power, a single salvation... And that is called loving.

You learn to speak by speaking, to study by studying, to run by running, to work by working; in just the same way, you learn to love by loving.

Your position never gives you the right to command. It only imposes on you the duty of so living your life that others can receive your orders without being humiliated.

I had found a kind of serenity, a new maturity... I didn't feel better or stronger than anyone else but it seemed no longer important whether everyone loved me or not  more important now was for me to love them. Feeling that way turns your whole life around; living becomes the act of giving.

"We are the Love, loving."
