Opposition, Affection and Love
Verify on the basis of your natural acceptance if you want to be related to:

None X  The feeling of being related to none – in opposition to all

One √ The feeling of being related to one
The feeling of being related to many Affection
Many √
Everyone √  The feeling of being related to all Love

Affection (Lusg) – The feeling of being related to the other

(acceptance of the other as one’s relative)

Preconditioning Related to Love – Common misunderstandings
Excitement (from sensation, preconditioning) is confused for feeling
Natural
Imagination
Sensation – Acceptance
(in the Self) Love
Lust, getting from the other

Preconditioning
Continuity not possible

Preconditioning –

Sensation
Infatuation Infatuation, Lust
1. Love at First Sight?
2. By this age, I must have GF/BF?
3. The other has 4 GF/BF; I have only one?
Continuity not possible

Right understanding (natural acceptance) –

Love (प्रेम) = feeling of being related to all, responsible towards all, giving to all
Continuity

Once trust, respect, affection, care, guidance… are ensured within, then
the feeling of being related to all follows naturally 6

It all starts with identifying that one is related to other human being (Affection - Lusg) and it
slowly expands to the feeling of being related to all human beings and then to all, each & every
unit in nature (human being as well as other units) (Love - izse)

Feeling of Love is expressed in the form of kindness n;k, beneficience —ik and compassion
d#.kk. The feeling is for all, and it is expressed to those who come in contact

The feeling of Love is the foundation of Undivided Society

Justice

Justice is the recognition, fulfilment and evaluation of human-human relationship,

leading to mutual happiness

Recognition
 Unconditionally accepting the relationship. Accepting the other with their full possibility (potential) and
with their current level of competence
Fulfilment
 Ensuring the naturally acceptable feeling in oneself and sharing it with the other
 Living with responsibility with the other unconditionally. This makes the other comfortable and
assured
 Making effort for mutual development, i.e. development of one’s own competence and being
of help to the other in developing their competence
Evaluation
 Verifying that the right feeling has reached to the other and that the other is able to make out that it is
the right feeling

Sum Up
A society is composed of families living together, in a relationship of mutual fulfillment. They have a common goal,
which is:
1. Right understanding & right feeling (happiness) in every individual
2. Prosperity in every family
3. Fearlessness (trust) in society
4. Co-existence (mutual fulfilment) in nature/existence

To fulfill the Human Goal, there are five dimensions in the society:
1. Education – Sanskar
2. Health – Self-regulation
3. Production – Work
4. Justice – Preservation
5. Exchange – Storage
Education = Developing Right Understanding
Sanskar = Commitment/ Preparation/ Practice for Right Living
Preparation includes Learning Right Skills & Technology

The family is the basic unit in society.

There is a natural process of development of a child in an environment of relationship.

 Exercise 1

We (each one of us) are doing these

exercises for developing ourselves

- Developing understanding and

- Purification of accumulated feeling and thought
Step 2: Self Evaluation – of Feeling
I am evaluating the feeling, thought that I have at this moment
- Is this feeling naturally acceptable to me or not?
- Is it natural for me or not ?
- n accordance with human nature or not?
- Would I like the continuity of this feeling or not?

For example, observe and evaluate

when you have the feeling of affection, and when you have the feeling of opposition

Be aware of the feeling at this moment.

Just observe the feeling as it is… and simply evaluate it
without any reaction
(make no effort to hold on or to stop any particular feeling, thought)

Just be aware, observe the feeling as it is… and evaluate it; without any reaction

Do the steps 1 & 2 throughout the day- Every Moment

Write down your observations in your journal (say every 4 hours)

52
