Unconditional Love is
Devotion - Baba
I was sitting by His Lotus Feet inside
Interview Room. Swami suddenly asked, whom do you Love the most? This sudden enquiry made me dumb
and I could not talk or respond. Swami went on to talk.
“You loved your mother, because
she was your mother. You loved your father, because He was your father. These are conditional Love. When you grow up
you get married and you start loving your wife. The intensity of your Love towards
your parents gets reduced. And later, when
you beget children the intensity of Love
is shared by the children. So your so-called love is not constant. At the end
of your life when you leave this world, everything is gone. You take birth somewhere in another life, and you are bestowed
with new parents, new wife, and new children. Everything changes.
But your Love towards God is
constant, throughout your life and even in your further births. In this Love
there is no condition. You love God, because.....? No answer. You just love god
unconditionally. Realising this we should develop extreme Love towards God.
Everyone should become A gopa or Gopika. This extreme Love to God is known as
Devotion. This Love for God should be unconditional”.
So said our beloved Baba.
