To look within for the actual source of love leads to the discovery of the Self. Like the sun, the Self is ever present, unconditional, and not subject to thought, opinion, or attitude.Ā The Self can only love because that is its essence.Ā The love of the Self is not earned, deserved or subject to limitation.Ā The Self the source of life and the subjective awareness of existence…It is beyond all dualities; there is no duality between the Self and existence. The Unmanifest and Manifest are one and the same.Ā Consciousness may include content, or it may not.Ā By analogy, space is not dependent on the presence of planets or universes, yet it includes all of them.
