The love-and-lighters persist in misconstruing love and light. It drives me up a wall!
Unconditional love is not sentimental, not gooey, not gushy. It's most often deemed hard as nails! It's frequently called "tough love" because people can't fathom that level of honesty could be described as anything nicer than the brutal truth.
I don't say it is brutal. I tell you the real thing is almost always unwelcome. Sometimes that has to be ignored, but actual love and light is threatening to most humans.
There is no self in it. It is the incarnation of giving everyone, no matter who they are, the best you can. This is seriously very, very rarely anything approximating a hug. I wonder, for instance, what would be the best I could give if confronted with Hillary Clinton. "Kill her!" leaps instantly to mind. Would this be best served as actual physical killing or mastering the cosmic energy so well I blank her out, turn her instantly docile and harmless, frying all her psychotic circuits? I'd have to see, but I don't suppose that I will ever be confronted with it/her.
In every situation you neither pull toward you nor push away, and you do your best to be a light, completely detached from mundane expressions loaded with emotional coding bound to mislead. The object is to raise existence, not coddle and cuddle it. Let it persist in its highest and happiest state, let your life be about that, not about yourself, not about your walking around sense of positive and negative, not about any form of even friendliness. Not not friendliness either. All this blather is completely moot.
You have to see first and then you have to conduct yourself in accord with that for the rest of your life. All your successes and failures start counting on a completely new set of rules to live by. Unspeakably few grok what those are or mean, and unspeakably many are put off by it when they are not outright sent into fight or flight mode.
Please.
