TO LOVE, AND TO BE LOVED
"Why do I feel so deeply in love with you, even deeper than my admiration of your spiritual Nature?” Sati asked one day.
“In the beginning was the One.
And he thought, may I be two, may I be many.
To love and to be loved. And so the universe came into being.” replied Shiva.
“Ah, lovely,” said Sati.
“Yes. And an electrifying attraction happens in love.
A spiritual preceptor can also bedazzle you with one look.”
“Yes, for sure,” said Sati.
“Only later, you realise that love and spirituality run on the same current,” Shiva replied with mystic precision that was His paradoxical hallmark.
“Life is still the One, playing with itself, discovering itself.”
“With many, many layers to its own gifts...” Sati thought dreamily. “We are one, we are one indeed,” She whispered softly, and closed her eyes in sweet repose.
