What is Love?

Maybe I read too many Richard Bach books, or watched too many movies...god knows there isn't a movie out there that doesn't end with some sort of swapping of DNA between two people suposedly 'in love', but I've spent alot of my wakingtime thinking about love and what it really is, and I have this crazy idea of what love actually is.

I think every human has an energy, or electricity flowing through their body. This energy flows freely through a healthy newborn child, but as we age and are made to feel bad about ourselves, or damage our bodies with toxic food or bad habits, we impede the flow of this energy, and create blockages which need to be removed. There is also another more subtle energy, which flows through the soul, and which is blocked by events from past lives, and 'emotional' things that occur to us in this life. This energy is impeded by improper development or misuse of the emotions, traumatic childhood type events etc...this more subtle energy can actually then manifest as blockages in the more dense, physical energy.

When the more dense energy is perfectly flowing through the physical body, an exctasy indesribable is felt throughout the body. It is as though you are teetering on the very very, point of no return, edge of orgasm 24-7. And this is the state which most people refer to as,"seing god". In this state, the perfect union between your soul and God is undeniable, and the delusions of the world fall away, in a way that the human mind will not ever grasp, until experienced. It is like...a reunion with the truth. Healthy babies exist in this state all the time, and is what yogis call Samadhi, or Zen. Yoga actually means union with God.

Now throughout our lives as we have fearful experiences, or are told by ourselves, are parents, and whoever is around us that we are 'bad', we shut our awareness of this perfectly freely flowing energy off, while we are busy feeling 'bad', or afraid. It is actually a chemical process by which toxins are produced in the physical body from the breakdown products of adrenaline, and stress hormones that activate when we are afraid, or upset. When these chemicals wear off, they leave behind
toxic chemicals (adrenal chromate I think?) that can actually cause brain damage after long periods of exposure to stressfull situations. Like kids growing up in abusive homes, thier brains are actually damaged by the constant stress chemicals. Even after the stressful situation is passed, the chemical damage can be permanent.

OK...so how do we get back to perfect blissed out state? Usually we fall in love. See, what happens is, when we get near someone that has thier energy flowing nicely in some area but not in others, but our areas line up...like one person is lacking where the other person is fine...the energy starts to flow again perfectly becasue the channel is now unblocked. Where there is a blockage in your body, the other person is open, so the energy has a path to flow through. And over time, this energy can remove blockages in both people's bodies, and bring them both closer to perfection. I think it makes sense that these two people should fall in love and want to combine thier physical bodies into one person, one person that would be a complete whole where the parents were individually lacking in areas. This is how babies should be made, in my opinion. Those babies, born from that kind of love are super-babies.

So love is really just that blissed out all the time, everything's gonna be ok, kinda feeling, and that is really just the biproduct of being near someone that completes your circuit. 'Love' is really the perfect flow of energy around a healthy human being. It is this state that has been genetically bred out of us, so that we may be a slave to institutions which teach us that we are bad, and sinners, and that only by going into their building, and donating money to them, can you experience this feeling again. If everyone were intimately associated with the universe, how could the church control access to God?

The truth is, you don't need anything else outside your body to get back to that perfect state of oneness with the universe, that state that makes human love look like a joke. It is only by completing our own circuits, and becoming completely fully functioning human beings, through Yoga, Tai-Chi, Chi-Gung, Kung-Fu, Meditation, Dancing, whatever. Any of the millions of ways the universe has sent us to save ourselves, so that we can break our desire to have relationship after relationship, in a vain attempt to find what it is that we are truly looking for, which is peace. It is from this state, that we learn to love ourselves, and forgive ourselves our past mistakes,and begin to influence our need to be reborn into physical bodies at all.
