Love, the beginning and reason of human existence.
Truly I say to you that everything great and good that exists in
the spirit, you have never given because you do not even know it.
From infancy until old age, you have clear examples of everything
that is gained with love and of the pain that originates from the
lack of charity; but you, more insensible than the rocks, have yet
to learn the teachings and examples that daily living give you.
Love is the beginning and the reason of your existence.
Oh humanity! How could you live without that gift? Believe me, there are many who
carry death within, and others who are sick just for not loving anyone.
Truly I say to you that there exists coldness in the hearts of men,
because love has fled from them. It is like those homes in which the
sacred flame of afecttion has been extinguished, be it between spouses,
between parents and children, or between brothers. Their bodies are
together, but their spirits are distant. How large is their emptiness,
how large is the loneliness, and how cold the inside of those homes!
If men felt the true love for their brethren, they should not be suffering
the chaos in which they find themselves and everything within them
would be harmony and peace; but that Divine Love they do not understand
and they only want the truth that reaches the brain, not the one that
reaches the heart, and there they have the result of their materialism:
a selfish humanity, false and full of bitterness.
The true meaning of love.
For you love is a beautiful word, but until today you have not penetrated
into its true sense.
When I speak to you about love I refer to the divine link that unites
all beings, I am not referring to the love as it is understood by
men.
Where there is selfishness and low passions, there is no true
love. I equally love the one who deceives and offends me, as well
as the one who recognizes and honors me with his deeds.
Even though much is spoken about love on earth, there are those who
fake it; others who confuse it with a selfish feeling, and others
with a low passion. Falseness rules the human heart, the untruth
reigns, there is deceit love, friendship and charity.
You were born because of love, you exist because of love, you are
forgiven because of love, and you will be in eternity because of love.
Love is not learned, it is felt, it is carried within.
Truly I say to you that love is the immutable power that moves the
universe. Love is the beginning and the essence of life.
