Our Being is a system of energies, and we always reach towards others by means of energy radiation and energy sendings. These energy radiation and sendings can be of various kinds, but the link and medium through which they must flow is always our magnetic energy, our Love energy — the energy of communion.
In our relationships with all beings we seldom consider that we are always interacting with energies and that these interactions determine the quality and the depth of any relationship. How can we know the kind of energy used in a relationship? “Know thyself” is the answer of the Wisdom Teachings.
The Essence of our Being is an inexhaustible fountain of Life energy and Love energy. These two energies flowing through us not only sustain, nourish and vitalize our human form, but also seek to shine through it and radiate to all beings and all things around us.
This natural tendency to radiate energies describes the central characteristic of our Being and of our incarnate existence — the whole structure of our form and all our inner and psychological faculties are so designed that each one of us can be like “the Sun that draws near and vivifies the Earth and all its creatures, yet naught can the Sun take from out the Earth”.
Both our Life energy and Love energy are focused in and distributed from the heart energy center (or heart chakra). This is not a capricious happening. It is the result of our divine planned intention to come into incarnation and be a radiant center of Love and Life.
Every time that we choose to love, a stream of Love energy is generated in our heart energy center and radiated towards the loved one, towards the one we relate with. Simultaneously, another stream of Love energy, fourfold in potency, is generated in the core of our Soul; this second stream completely bathes our being reinforcing its integrity, magnetism and harmony.
The stream of energy generated in the Soul always flows in a direct proportion to the energy that we generate with our heart. The result is that the more we love, the more energized, healthy and harmonious our being becomes.
But the Life energy is not absent when we choose to love. The Life energy ceaselessly pours forth from the core of the Soul and from the heart center. However, its major characteristic is that it always follows the most magnetic, harmonious and balanced path, and the path created by Love is just that. It is for this reason that both energies share the same focusing and distributing point in the center of our Soul and in our heart energy center.
The loved ones also obtain great benefits from our energies. The Love energy that we generate when we choose to love not only creates a link for communion between the parties involved in the relation but also forms a reservoir of Love vibrations around the loved ones. This reservoir of Love energy serves to alleviate challenges in their lives and facilitates their individual growth because it is the nature of Love to always create harmony and balance among diverse energies.
The Life energy of our being likewise reaches the loved ones. Its touch strengthens their vital energy field increasing their vitality and inducing a real sense of well-being — this Life energy carried on the waves of Love is the main energy for us to use when practicing the art and science of Healing.
This view of human relationships in terms of energy interactions does not deprive us of the beauty and joy that they can bring. On the contrary, it raises us to more exalted levels because it shows that our relationships of all kinds are creative acts with the power to permanently affect our being, others and the Universe itself.
It is important to recognize that to a certain extent we all exercise our capacity to love in the daily life; in other words, to a certain extent in our daily life we all generate Love energy. Without this we would be unable to relate to others at all; we would not even be able to have the most simple dealings and affairs that our everyday life functioning requires.
However, it is in the way we relate to others where we find the main reason for our human form to be prone to disease, to age and eventually die; as well as, the main reason for social decay and crime. This main reason is that we do not love enough.
What happens to most of us is that we are seldom fully open and sincere in our dealings with others, and we usually withhold a great part of the energy in us that, by the Law of our Being, should be radiated and shared. The explanation for this is very simple:
Many of our thoughts are self-centered — this arrests the radiation of the Life energy through us.
Most of our feelings are reserved and, again, centered upon us — this arrests the flow of the Love energy through us.
And most of our words and actions are aimed to support our self-centered thoughts and feelings.
An ancient story tells that in us, human beings, there is an ages-old unconscious belief. The belief that if we share too much of what we are and have, we will suffer lack and want. It is said that this unconscious tendency (also many times a conscious tendency) was born of our forgetfulness — we forgot that we are an inexhaustible fountain of Life and Love!
The story also tells that when we will remember this, the whole Universe will sing in joy at “the dawn of the Suns of Love and Life”.
Perhaps this ancient story is more than just a story. We unfold our potential and expand in beauty, joy and perfection by freely and wisely sharing our being with others. In this conscious sharing there is a tremendous healing power for all. Also in this conscious sharing lies the foundation for true community life. Otherwise, the depletion of the energies in our form and in our communities takes place when we live and act in forgetfulness of our Essence.
To love is really a very practical and beneficial choice for everybody. On one hand, if in our relations and dealings with others we choose to establish the smallest possible link and to withhold our naturally outgoing energies, our being will starve in energy and, therefore, weaken, decay and age. On the other hand, if we choose to establish fully open, unconditional links with others and to wisely share without expecting anything in return, our being and world will experience health, harmony and abundance.
Love is neither a moral, nor a sentimental thing.
Love is a very practical choice.
Love is an energy-generating power.
Love is truly the carrier of Life energy.
Love is to accept and share the Bounty of the Universe — a Bounty of which we are an essential part.
Love is the primary means that we human beings have for health, progress and perfection.
