Meher Baba on Love VII

"Love is a mighty force. It not only enables one to put the ideal of selfless service into practice, but would transform one into God. With love, one can follow any of the yogas most suitable to his or her temperament. It will enable an aspirant to follow the rigid principles underlying the spiritual Path, and where and when necessary, make him turn his back to the worldly pleasures for the sake of union with the beloved. Where there is love, there is oneness, and there can be no question of any particular religion or caste or system, superiority or inferiority, and touchability or untouchablity. That these distinctions are not real has been proved, in a way, by the recent earthquake tragedy. The earthquake in Bihar was simply a manifestation of one of the laws of nature. And that disaster spared none, rich or poor, high or low. belonging to this religion or that. It was not divine wrath. It is an eye-opener to the fact that where God and his laws are concerned, there is no question of caste, creed or country. But to realise this natural equality permanently, one has to submit to the greatest law of God, which is love. It holds the key to all problems, inasmuch as under this law the Infinite is realised completely at all times, in every walk of life, be it science, art, religion or beauty. May the world realise this highest aspect of divinity more and more."
