🌿 You Are Not Alone
My dear friend, chasing after love with all your heart can feel like running on shifting sands — exhausting and never quite reaching solid ground. It’s natural to long for connection, yet true peace blooms not from pursuit, but from gentle stillness within. Let’s walk together toward that quiet place where love is not something to catch, but a light that shines from your own soul.
🕉️ Timeless Words
सर्वधर्मान्परित्यज्य मामेकं शरणं व्रज ।
अहं त्वां सर्वपापेभ्यो मोक्षयिष्यामि मा शुचः ॥
(भगवद्गीता 18.66)
"Abandon all varieties of dharma and simply surrender unto Me alone. I will liberate you from all sinful reactions; do not fear."
This verse calls you to surrender—not in defeat, but in trust. When you stop chasing external love and surrender your heart to the Divine within, your restless seeking dissolves. True liberation comes when you stop running and start resting in that eternal source.
🪬 Guiding Lights
- Love begins within: The Gita teaches that the Self is eternal and whole; when you nurture your inner being, love naturally radiates outward.
- Detach from outcome: Attachment to how love should be causes suffering; practice loving without expectation.
- Surrender your fears: Fear of loneliness or rejection fades when you trust the Divine’s care for you.
- Be present: Peace arises when you fully inhabit this moment, not when you chase what’s missing.
- See yourself as love’s source: When you recognize your own divine nature, you stop seeking love as a remedy and start living it as your essence.
🌊 Inner Dialogues
You might be telling yourself, “Why does love always feel so distant? Am I not enough? If only someone would see me, then I’d be happy.” These thoughts are tender wounds, reflecting your deep yearning. It’s okay to feel this way. But remember, the love you seek from others is already within you, waiting patiently for your attention and care.
📿 What He Would Say...
"My dear one, do not lose yourself chasing shadows of love outside. The love you crave is not a prize to be won but a river flowing quietly inside your heart. Rest in that river. When you stop running, you will see that love is not something you find—it is who you are. Trust this truth, and peace will be your companion."
🌱 A Familiar Story
Imagine a student endlessly searching for the perfect teacher, traveling city to city, hoping to find someone who can answer all their questions. But one day, exhausted, they sit quietly and realize the wisdom they sought was growing inside them all along. The external search fades, replaced by inner clarity. Just like that student, your journey to love begins not in chasing, but in turning inward.
