The complicated existence

Sorrow and love can exist together or did we have become accustomed to it and tolerate it, wondering is it possible to end the sorrow or whether that love can exist in our life.

The sorrow of not being loved and the craving to be loved are factors of the self. 

Being concerned with the self and all its endless problems is bearing psychological pain and is the ridding of the beast of burden. 

Those consequences are part of our life making sorrow the essence of isolation. 

Can love exist at all in this suffering and pleasures? Or is love something entirely different? Love has no motive, and if there is a motive it is not love, obviously.

Either we are conscious of it, or deliberately avoiding it.

And yet one says "I love you" without meaning and it creates a deep contradiction in the individual self, struggling to have any sense of profound integrity.

 If we are totally responsible for ourselves and have this deep integrity then we affect the consciousness of the world.

Lovers of life are those who live a life wholly, not fragmented in shades of a cliché. 

Love cannot exist when there is a motive or attachment, ambition and competitiveness, for love has nothing to do with desire and pleasure. Those are only just sensations.

So if we are intelligent, sane and rational, we have to face righteousness, which is not something that is intellectually cultivated.

The living form of love has its order and when there is order there is virtue and essence of living, and not a routine or a judgment.

Love is the mastership of contentment, which raises the individual above the strife for worthless things and beyond the limitation of human nature.

The motive of power is very creative and constructive, yet it is motive that limits the power of love, which is limitless.

Conventionality is the tragedy of life.
