It might be my own perception but I like it that way, and I
am convinced that true love exists right here in this world. People do fall in
love for other persons and it requires no specifications. How we define LOVE is
something that needs to be discussed. Some people think that a quantity of time
spent together is a parameter of true love while others believe in quality of
it!
How to Define Love in
Different Perspectives!
So it is hot debate among different races in ancient times,
and a subject matter of literature in medieval age, and it is a far Complex Issue
in Modern Times. We are not certain of what we really mean by loving someone.
Here I am referring to ‘Romantic Love’ but I am not forgetting the importance
of Love and Compassion for different blood relations, friends and for nature as
well!
What Kind of People
Fall in Love for General Humanity and for What Reasons!
People do fall in love at a broader spectrum and they do not
bind themselves with only a single expression, and to devote their love for
only one human being. Look at the example of “Mother Teresa” who left her life of conveniences, and devoted herself
to serve the underprivileged people of India. Did she put all efforts for personal
recognition or for wining some award like ‘Nobel Prize’? No! It happened out of
a true emotional love for humanity and for seeing people in better conditions
of life.
Why People Sacrifice
their Comforts for the Love and Freedom of their Nations?
Here I would like to mention about “Muhammad Ali Jinnah” whom the citizens of Pakistan call “Father of the Nation”. He literally devoted his
whole life for the sake of independence and freedom of his countrymen, and to
let a separate homeland for Muslim of Sub Continent, to live in peace and practice their basic principles of Islam in a best manner. Why he did all this
as he was a successful lawyer and a rich man? He enjoyed all luxuries of his
time, and what made him stand out of crowd to and decide to devote his life for
others!
What is the
Motivational Factor of Love of Nation to Fight for a Cause?
It is just too phenomenal with some people that they Love to
find PEACE and Comfort for others, and they go beyond imagination to make
personal sacrifices for others. Here you can look at the life of “Nelson Mandela” who devoted 27 years in
prison, to let black people of South Africa have their right of equality, and a
right to live like rest of human beings of the world. Would you say that he was
crazy? No he was not but in fact more practical than living in dreams like
others of a seen or unseen beloved!!
What is the Reality
of Divine Love and Spiritual Elevation!
On a further level of discussion we can look at the lives of
those Spiritual Leaders who left all worldly leisure and pleasures for seeking Divine
Love. They were not insane but they wanted to escape from the limited mind frame
that only wanted to get material gains, and to fall for lust in order to gain Love
kind of thing. Their love for Nature and God Almighty was and still is all pure,
and it is beyond any expectations and gains for this world.
So I would love to conclude my hypothesis that there are no
set standards and parameters of love. So there were and right at this moment
there exist people who fall in multifaceted kinds of love. This will keep on
happening, and eventually link to the Universe, to find true meaning of Human Existence
and to go in search of pure and deep-rooted love for sure!!
