Love at First Sight - How does it Happen? - 26 Dec 08

Christmas

I already told you about the questions of my friend and today I would like to answer the first one. He asked me about love at first sight.

I believe in love at first sight. It can happen that you see someone or something and you cannot stop yourself from falling in love. You don’t even know why and there is no reason for this love, it is just there. There is no reason to love. I always talk about love without reasons or without condition. Love is there, it is in you anyway and when you see something and you like it, then love starts flowing. I am sure that everybody has had this kind of experience in his life. It could be a place, a person or a thing with which you fall in love. I believe in love at first sight. It happens because you have love inside you and something triggers it, it starts to flow and you fall in love.

From my personal experience I can say that you can fall in love even before the first sight, I even found myself falling in love only by imagination.

I, too, am a believer in love at first sight, and I love the way that you phrase it. We allow our love to flow because something triggers this feeling inside. People often doubt love at first sight because they think it is magical or mystical or a fairytale... but it makes lots of sense. We are attracted to certain things and let our love flow to it, even if it's from far away or we've never spoken with them. I think love IS magical and would like to keep it that way! :D

Words of Wisdom

  • Happiness

    If a player only enjoyed playing if he won the match, he would not be very happy in his profession. Don’t let your mind stop you from enjoying as much you can!

    Source
  • Religion

    Going to the temple or to church regularly does not make you religious. You are religious when you have compassion in your heart for helping others, when you wish them well and give your effort to make this wish come true.

    Source
  • Feelings

    Jealousy is just a natural emotion. If you feel jealous, allow it. If you struggle or fight with it, it will irritate you more. You can be jealous, but realize that it is not a grown-up emotion. Realize your feeling, accept it and let it go again. If there was a justified reason for it, express it. If it was not, express it to yourself and then let it go. There is no sense in being upset about the fact that you have this feeling.

    Source
  • Gurus

    Religious leaders act as if God is their property and they are the ones to distribute the connection. But they are not the brokers of God. You don’t need to pay them commission to establish the connection. You can just dial in yourself.

    Source
  • Personal

    I don’t tell you what you should believe or that you should follow me. I am just a normal person like you and everyone else whose thinking is influenced by his surrounding and the events happening around him.

    Source
  • God

    God is the soul of our souls and lives in everybody in the form of love.

    Source
  • Meditation

    It is your awareness of the moments. When you are hurrying, you are just focused on what you are doing, to do it as quick as possible and the moments go by without you noticing them. When you are waiting, you are really aware of each moment, you feel each moment, each breath that you take. Both ways can be meditation.

    Source
  • Religion

    Religions tell women that they have to cover their heads and even faces with a veil or a burqa because men could get aroused by seeing their faces and imagining a vagina.

    Source
  • Religion

    It is impossible to be ‘religious but not superstitious’ because religious scriptures are full of superstition. You cannot separate superstition from religion, its origin. It as a positive sign though, if you think this much - you have taken the first step!

    Source
  • Magic

    Siddhis are not real. Don't be afraid, nobody can do anything to you!

    Source
  • Sex

    Being spiritual cannot mean denying your sexuality and becoming celibate. Accept your sexuality in a spiritual way. Sexuality, driven by love, can be only spiritual, nothing else. God created us how we are and with sexuality being a part of us. Do not neglect that.

    Source
  • Guilt

    Feeling Guilty for others won't help them

    Source
  • Children

    With children it is easy to have an emotional connection because they understand the language of emotions better than the language of intellect. If you talk to them with intelligent words, definitions and facts, they won’t understand you. If you reach out to them with love and happiness, you establish an emotional bridge in between you and them.

    Source
  • Parenting

    If you only ate when you were hungry, you would never have a problem with obesity. Adults and also children get hungry naturally. Don’t eat and don’t let them eat for their entertainment, from boredom or from hunger in their thoughts and eyes.

    Source
  • Scriptures

    Scriptures were written by men, in a male-dominated society, when war, killing and fighting was a daily occurrence, when people were tortured, women were beaten and slaves were being held. You cannot call that holy.

    Source
  • Happiness

    Happiness should be our normal state of mind.

    Source
  • Religion

    ‘Sadhu’ or ‘Sanyasi’ means detached. Today's Sadhu ridiculously contradicts his title with his display of gold and wealth!

    Source
  • Judging

    ‘You should not judge’ is often used by masters and Gurus to keep their disciples and followers from questioning what they are doing.

    Source
  • Negativity

    If you seek holes in everything and want to see the negative side, you will be affected more and more by negativity.

    Source
  • Belief

    Once you go away from a belief, you will realize how liberating it is when you can take responsibility for your actions and their consequences yourself.
