Experiences, Senses, Feelings and just Love - 20 Jan 10

Food for a day

When writing yesterday’s diary entry I realized once again how different people’s perception can be. One kind of noise, especially when it is regular and for longer time like a ticking or humming, can be soothing for one person but very annoying for another one. One kind of smell can make one person’s mouth water while the other one cannot stand it for more than a minute. How diverse our perception is!

Of course it is connected with our emotions: when there is a smell which was there on a beautiful romantic evening, you remember this feeling and you feel good. We were talking today about it how different each person’s feelings, senses and perception are. And in how many different ways you can express even one feeling. How different do people describe when they find something funny or good. And how many different descriptions you can get for the feeling of love.

I would like to invite you all to write to me with YOUR definition, your way of expressing the feeling of love. How do you feel in a moment of love? How is your feeling when your loved one looks into your eyes? What do you feel when your loved one smiles at you and says ‘I love you’? Or is it another sentence for you that triggers this? An action, a situation? I would like to collect as many different ways of experiencing love as possible and share it with each other.

So just write your thoughts down and send them to [email protected], we will collect them and when we will have a nice collection I will present them in my diary so we all can share this loving feeling.

When I experience love, I feel my heart bursting with energy. I feel warm and giggly. I want to reach out and hug others! Hold them. And laugh. It brings me smiles and even tears of joy.

When I am in a moment with love i feel like there is a humming in the back of my ears and all of the colors change and the lights shift and objects stop looking so seperate from each. I cansuddenly smell more deeply and hear clearly. it is almost an out of body experience and I havent had it many times.

Words of Wisdom

  • Spiritual

    Spirituality is something very personal and individual. You don’t need to connect with a sect or join a group for living your spirituality. You need deeply felt spirituality and not show-off spirituality. Be natural about your spirituality.

    Source
  • Happiness

    Making an effort to make your loved one happy makes you happy. This is love: you want to make your beloved happy.

    Source
  • Sex

    You can often hear someone say after their first night ‘It was really a good night, I had wonderful sex’. This doesn\'t mean they did anything special. It is amazing because sex itself is such a great thing. It is not the quality of the woman and the man, it is the quality of sex itself.

    Source
  • Friend

    In a close friendship, there are two separate individuals who give each other love but can still have different belief and ideas of life.

    Source
  • Sex

    Equality does not mean that you give sexual freedom to women and control, blame, accuse and judge men!

    Source
  • Relationship

    When you expect your daughter- or son-in-law to be the same like you, you don’t even give the possibility and freedom to this fresh couple to develop that healthy relationship coming out of two different cultures.

    Source
  • Freedom

    If you want to follow a Guru, a master, a sect leader or any kind of belief, don’t have your children affected, too! Give your children the possibility to decide themselves. Show them the normal world, let them develop properly with the full capacity of their mind to be critical, to think about everything themselves and with full emotional abilities, too! Give your child the freedom and the possibility of a healthy, normal lifestyle.

    Source
  • Gurus

    Don’t be afraid, there are no such things as Siddhis! Speak out without fear and don’t let gurus cheat more people by claiming to have supernatural powers!

    Source
  • Religion

    This caste system is part of the Hindu religion and comes from religion. So the same religion that you admire and try to imitate is dividing people into higher and lower persons.

    Source
  • Money

    Don’t value everything with money. If you give, give generously without expectation. If you get something, appreciate it with your heart, not with your purse.

    Source
  • Relationship

    Is there a Rule that you have to have Problems in your Relationship? Can it not be that we all are happy and fine?

    Source
  • Belief

    Atheists identify themselves with the fact that they don’t believe in any god. They have the principle of not believing – but believing that there is no god is also a belief.

    Source
  • Judging

    If you made it your habit not to ever judge anything and anybody, you would get psychological problems as you would not be able to make independent decisions on your own and would never know which way to go.

    Source
  • Game

    Don't play for winning but for having fun. The aim is not being better and if you lose, there is no reason to be sad. This is the game. Somebody will lose, somebody will win. A game is there for enjoying. Winning and losing is part of the fun.

    Source
  • Decision

    It is your own decision how you want to spend your life. You can live a true and honest life. Take your decision and have the courage!

    Source
  • Relationship

    Breaking with someone causes pain, hurts and makes people feel bad. If there is any way to avoid it, please do.

    Source
  • God

    Don’t seek God in religious icons or figures. God is love and lives in our heart. If you, in a prayer or mantra, mention the name Jesus, Ram or also Hanuman, it doesn’t mean that you specify a religion you are praying to. You have God in your heart, no matter which name you say with your tongue.

    Source
  • Gurus

    Gurus with business interests made it possible to convert to Hinduism!

    Source
  • Anger

    Gyan Yogis say that there is no duality. Everything is one and everyone is the same because god is in everybody. So if God is in you, in me and in everyone around, against whom do you want to direct your aggression? Anger can only exist in duality. When everything is God, then everything is the same, everyone is love.

    Source
  • Honesty

    People often say and do things that they don’t believe in. How long can you play such a drama? You have to live in your original consciousness.
