1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000
Good morning boys and girls, welcome to the Progressive.

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:11,000
Do a quick one on a sort of a difficult subject, if you want to call it that.

3
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:21,000
Because we are going to talk about love today and this has been so misunderstood, so linear in our thinking

4
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:28,000
and what we think the energy of love is. So I'll just share what came to me and allow you to sit with it

5
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:34,000
and you have to get this energetically because it's not possible to linearize something like love.

6
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:42,000
And you'll find out why by the time I finish this. So pay attention, pay energetic attention to what I'm about to share with you.

7
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:49,000
It's not going to be understood much by the mind but it's going to be understood by some part of you that is the being.

8
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:56,000
Because we are talking about that one over there on the left hand bottom corner, the new human being.

9
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:04,000
We spoke about the six parts and we are going to talk about just one part of that which is the love right in the center there.

10
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:09,000
And how it relates to expand, engage, regenerate and create as action.

11
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:15,000
Can we create love? Can we engage with love? Can we regenerate love or can we expand love?

12
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,000
Now what are the talking points for today?

13
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:26,000
Well what is it? Well love is a self illuminating, self-perceiving, self-propailing, self-conscious energy.

14
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:35,000
You've got to understand this is not an energy form. The energy we call love is not like electricity or not like magnetism.

15
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:43,000
This is a self-propel, self-conscious energy. So it's conscious in and of itself what it wants to do, where it wants to go.

16
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:51,000
It's the illuminating principle of life itself. So it's all pervading from all matter to all non-matter.

17
00:01:51,000 --> 00:02:00,000
You can't really materialize love although it is in material form. So it is one of the paradoxical concepts of creation itself.

18
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:09,000
This is why people who have tried to capture it through poetry, through art forms, through music, through sculpture, through architecture, through science, through biology,

19
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:17,000
you name it through any science and field of humanities, have kind of unable to do it successfully.

20
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:27,000
Because the mind is only capable of linear thinking. The mind is only a vessel for linear thought, step by step, putting one foot in front of the other.

21
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:35,000
That's what mind is about. Whereas love isn't. It's very multi-dimensional. Meaning it can be matter, it can be non-matter.

22
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:42,000
It can be conceptual, it can be abstract, it can be real in physical form, it can be not real.

23
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:46,000
So it pervades through all matter and non-matter. What do I mean?

24
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:58,000
It pervades through all matter and non-matter. Even the most microstructure of subatomic particles of all that is in the known universe and all that is even invisible,

25
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:09,000
is guided and harmonizes and exists and is held in place with this energy called love. It's an energy form.

26
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:17,000
It goes through all universes. What do I mean by universes? Universe is one place but it has got many dimensions.

27
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:28,000
So all these dimensions of existence exist in one place and are held in place in each dimension with the energy of love.

28
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:36,000
You have to understand all this energetically. How is it felt as the second point? How is energy felt like?

29
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:42,000
We are trying to translate here into usable means. How you can use this in your daily life?

30
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:55,000
It has an abstract concept which is maybe nice to read in a poetry, maybe nice to see in a movie, maybe nice to see two lovers or maybe nice to see how one loves a particular art form of creation.

31
00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:02,000
It is all of those. It is not one singular thing. So how is it felt as which can be used in daily life?

32
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:06,000
Well, here are some words that I want to share with you which came to me.

33
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:16,000
Expansion. Love is about expansion. It's constant expansion of your field, of your energy, of your soul, of your mind, of your emotions.

34
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:24,000
It is seeking expansion. It is an ever expanding spiral of energy which rises in us.

35
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:30,000
It can be like a song. It can be like a hum. It can be like a frequency. It can be like a vibration.

36
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:37,000
Color or colors are all of these or one or combination of all of these at the same time.

37
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:45,000
This is why love can shake a person completely up. It can completely transform anything because it goes in all directions.

38
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:56,000
It cannot be singularized in one or all directions. It can be all at once. It can be frequency. Some call it a vibration. Some call it a song. Some call it a color. Some call it a picture.

39
00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:06,000
Some call it it's formless. The unnamed yet it is felt. This is the unnamed one. Some people even call it the creator of the universe.

40
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:15,000
So it's the unnamed. You can't name it because you can't pick it. There is no form in it yet it is formless and yet it manifests as form.

41
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:31,000
It feels as a connection. Feels as a dissolving. Feels like a melting. Feels like it being seen. The sight. The real sight that we have. Not the physical eyes alone but sight of the soul.

42
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:46,000
It feels like it's being seen for the first time. Feels like it is being recognized. Feels like being seen. Felt. Feels like lightness. Feels like expanding outward from self. From me to everybody else.

43
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:57,000
So therefore it results in loss of ego. Loss of boundary. You feel loss of where you begin and where the other one ends or vice versa.

44
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:06,000
Even if it is temporary. Whenever a person is in the feeling of love. This is the loss of the boundary. That's why they use terms like falling in love.

45
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:16,000
With a person. With an activity. With a thing. With an art form. Falling in love. Your sense of dissolving is a sense of love.

46
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:29,000
Merging with the wholeness of the moment or with the creation. It can be even with plant. It can be with a flower. It can be with an animal. Your pets. Looking at your pet in the eye. Looking at a child in the eye.

47
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:35,000
Dedicating yourself to a piece of work that you are engaged with etc. All these things.

48
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:42,000
So it is felt where now. How is it felt we just covered. Where is it felt.

49
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:49,000
Okay. So love is felt. Sorry Siri popped up. Okay.

50
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:59,000
Where is it felt. It is felt everywhere. It is felt all around. Everything. In everything. In all things. Animate and inanimate.

51
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:08,000
Felt in unconditional freedom of being. This is crucial to remember when you are thinking about love. Love cannot exist in a contract form.

52
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:19,000
It is not a binding. You cannot encapsulate it. This is the first and surest way to lose love. Everywhere. The first thing you try to bind it into something. Or capture it.

53
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:29,000
This is the tendency of the mind. Human mind wants to capture it and hold it and say this is my lover or this is my lover. Or a husband or a wife or a child.

54
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:37,000
Or a flower or a piece of art. They get attached to things. Attachment creates that bondage. And love cannot exist in bondage.

55
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:55,000
Love is this inherently free energy all through the universe. It is not a contract folks. So it is felt in unconditional freedom of being, of expression, of action, of unrestricted flow, of unconditional time, place or existence.

56
00:07:55,000 --> 00:08:02,000
It is unconditional. It is unrestricted and unconditional. You have to think of these two things and reflect on it.

57
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:13,000
If you want to bring love daily in your life, it has to be unrestricted. You cannot regulate it with your behavior or other thoughts or beliefs or etc.

58
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:22,000
These are all fixed structures. Love is not fixed. Love is like a flow. It is like a wild river running everywhere.

59
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:35,000
So first and basic is unrestricted freedom of being and action. Remember this new human being is unrestricted. It flows everywhere in all directions.

60
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:43,000
That is where it starts and that is where it grows from. This is just the starting point. It can increase in ever expanding spirals.

61
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:55,000
And from there it grows and love is deeply connected to gratitude. If you want to just begin very simply, where do I begin doing all these very exotic looking language?

62
00:08:55,000 --> 00:09:03,000
You can begin by simple gratitude. You can begin by saying, I am thankful for these clothes that I am wearing right now. These clothes.

63
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:15,000
Somebody has woven this. All of those who I do not know who weaved them. I am thankful for this food and the farmer that I will know, never know, who made this food for me.

64
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:23,000
I am thankful to the sun. I am thankful to the air. I breathe. Breeze and plants silently purifying it for me.

65
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:37,000
If nothing else, you can be grateful every day, every meal, every hour and this love gratitude is what it creates and sustains and holds in itself the entire creation is held in gratitude.

66
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:51,000
A deep sense of gratitude which is like felt in the center of the chest. That is the heart of all creation. That is the heart of heartbeat of everything living non-living everywhere all around.

67
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:57,000
It creates all worlds and all universes.

68
00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:07,000
Create love. Now we come to the actions part of the human beings. How do we create love in our life? By taking that quality of unconditional love,

69
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:25,000
unconditional love into your daily activities. You can take it into your play, your work, your routines, your hobbies. You can engage with people, engage with things, engage with all things, all people, nature, your own mind, your own emotions, your own body.

70
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:33,000
Unconditionality is the key. Unconditional, personal, free expression of you.

71
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:47,000
Creating forms and the formless, the formless being abstract like the thoughts, emotions, feelings, energy, everything that's abstract or creating concrete things of life, things and feelings.

72
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:51,000
That's how you create love. You can do this every single day.

73
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:56,000
Expand love. How do you expand love? That portion over there.

74
00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:13,000
Expand can be by moving deliberately and consciously seeking. Remember this is a conscious exercise. You can't leave it to your astrological chart or birth chart or somebody or somebody, some person or place or thing will come and give me all the goodies of life.

75
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:25,000
All this is new human being is built with conscious engagement. You have to voluntarily participate in this. You can't sit there expecting things to drop into your lap. That's not how any of this can be created.

76
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:38,000
So by moving deliberately and consciously seeking, feeling, exploring in different directions in all that you do, you become, you create, you try out new things, activities, hobbies, engagement.

77
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:43,000
Love goes in all directions, inward and outward unrestricted in its energy.

78
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:51,000
Tap into the knowing of this as love and freely explore. Freely explore. Remember unrestricted, unconditional.

79
00:11:51,000 --> 00:12:04,000
Without conditions, categories, labels, love is grace. What we call as grace, the Christian concept of grace, which is there in the Bible, is nothing but this love.

80
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:15,000
This kind of love is called grace. It creates gracefulness in your life. It creates gracefulness in your thoughts, in your feelings, in your communication, in the body flow.

81
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:27,000
People who are having everything like stiff and joints and everything, their love is very tight. If you try to tightly hold on to something, that creates all that rheumatism in the body.

82
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:37,000
Slow, steady, calm, yet powerful beyond anything in all worlds.

83
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:53,000
How do you engage with love? The third one, third action of love. Even if by just sitting silently with yourself, just sitting silently with yourself, tuning in in your mind, in your visualization, in your imagination, dreaming.

84
00:12:53,000 --> 00:13:04,000
How you feel love, all of these things which I just spoke about. How do you feel this love? What connects you, which brings you all this kind of a feeling or somewhat of an energy of that?

85
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:14,000
How would you like to feel these qualities of love above, whatever I have spoken of? You've got to sit and engage. That's the way of engaging with love.

86
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:28,000
Engaging is a more inward energy, like for love at least first, because you have to bring it from inside to outside. You've got to sit and bring it here, bring it here. See the flow of energy, see the flow of pulse.

87
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:40,000
How would you like to feel those qualities of love above? What it personally means to you in your personal life? Make it very personal, make it very about yourself, about everybody else around you.

88
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:52,000
Because you are the one living your life, you are the one who are feeling your emotions, you are the one having your thoughts, you are the prisoner of your thoughts and the liberator of your thoughts, both at the same time.

89
00:13:52,000 --> 00:14:08,000
You are the feeler of love and the expresser of love. What else is there? You're just all the time in yourself. You may have things around you, you may have people around you, but who is the one feeling and thinking who is the receiver of this experience around you?

90
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:20,000
It's you. How would you like to build it more and more? Then you will come across this. How would you like to build it more and more? Then these ideas will come to you practically. How do you want to implement it in your life?

91
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:32,000
What makes sense to you basically? With people, places, activities and things. Regenerate the last of the action of love. How do you regenerate love? Regenerate it again going within.

92
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:48,000
You are going by resting, by sleeping, by being in peace, by being restful contentment. Restful contentment is quietness. Love resides in that quietness. Love is not loud. Love is not sending hallmark or arches, cards to people.

93
00:14:48,000 --> 00:15:03,000
This is so misunderstood. It's being in restful contentment that you have indeed done well with love. For today, bring it inwards into your body, heart center, withdraw, recuperate, hold and sustain.

94
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:14,000
Think about these words. Recuperate, hold, withdraw. Bring it inside. And let the day feed you inside. Nurture you, heal you each day and each hour.

95
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:24,000
There is nothing more or less about love. Love is not residing in duality. So it does not have more or less love.

96
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:34,000
It's not always about excitement or joy. It can be about peace and contentment as well. It can be about quietness, not about loudness. Sometimes it can be joy as expressed.

97
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:40,000
That will be more outward. Sometimes it will be quiet and introverted. That is also love.

98
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:51,000
Your entirety of being completely absorbed in it. Let your mind allow it to feed you, nurture you, develop your body and mind and emotions.

99
00:15:51,000 --> 00:16:07,000
So let this day you are to sit at the end of the day and absorb the love back, like pulling the energy back into yourself and rest. Allow it to permeate your entire being completely and rest and drink from this love.

100
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:13,000
This is the way it came to me. So I wanted to do a quick one on talking points of love.

101
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:24,000
So think about this kind of energy and think about how you can bring this in your life which is, which really makes sense to you.

102
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:35,000
After all, it has to make sense to you in a way which you can use it. It's not about people. It's not about places. It's not about things or it's not about emotion.

103
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:42,000
I'm talking about love. But it is all of them. It is each one of this, but not one specifically.

104
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:50,000
Don't try to isolate and fix and make it a structure or a contract or a bargain or any of these stupid things that we do.

105
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:56,000
Because the moment you start doing those, the first thing that flies out of the window is love.

106
00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:06,000
Then you're just carrying out a task and then people become dull and bored and dead inside. That's what I'm trying to bring to you as to show you here.

107
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:19,000
Take care and leave your comments and see if you're here. If anybody at all is listening, leave your comments and let's take this and see where it goes.

108
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:29,000
Observe this. Make this happen in your life. You do not have to be without love. Okay? Take care. Be safe. Be awesome wherever you are.
