Our recent culture has been obsessed with self-love, including me over the years. But something never set right with me about this self-love, separation language. "I love myself." Who is the "I" and who is the "self" when I AM Love? That language still denotes separation and is a false reality. I don't love myself...I AM. I AM LOVE. Love in my truest state and nothing has ever been separated from this love. Only the mind can separate us from love, never the heart. So do I need self-love OR...as the Sufi mystics tell us, along with countless Judeo-Christian and Buddist teachings...learn to BECOME Love that wipes away the illusion of separation? These are deep, mystical concepts that, if embraced, contemplated, and meditatated on, can set us all free. (@womanscircle, (@christablackgifford @iamlukegifford)
