Love is a legend that revives every day.
Definition by Anatol Basarab
To love is the law of life itself, as the law of love shows. It is one of the most sublime actions a human being can achieve. Love can accompany all of our other fundamental acts. If we learn full of love (with passion) we will remember and understand much easier. If we listen to love, we will hear more and much better. If we speak with love, our words will gain an unimaginably great force. If we fall asleep with love in the soul, our sleep will be restful and profound as a child. If we think when we are full of love, our thoughts will get profound and brilliant. The thoughts that are built by love will be brighter than the sun's rays and more penetrating than Arjuna's arrows.
All this and many others appear when love is present in our being.
To love is to live the life of the other. To forget about yourself and give yourself to the other without ever waiting for something, this is the true love that elevates you and purifies you from all that is dirty in this world.
God is love. When we make love to our soul, we make places for God himself. Because his love can come into us, the ego must go. If love enters, love goes away. If the ego leaves, love enters. A selfish person will not be able to love. Ego and love are mutually exclusive, just as the finite can not compare to infinity, just as darkness can not be where light is.
Most people complain that they are not loved. Many say, "I loved him with all my heart, and he never answered my love". But if you really loved him, why do you suffer he did not love you? Do not you know that true love does NOT NEVER wait, but absolutely never, Nothing in return. She is happy that she can manifest itself as she can bestow. As long as you suffer because of love it means you have not yet known true love.
If God would condition His love for our love for Him, we would all succumb in a moment.
Love is total gift, it means self-forgetting. And, as it happens in the spiritual world, full of paradoxes. Only when we forget about ourselves will we begin to remember ourselves.
As long as you ask for something in exchange for your love, it means you have not outgrown your ego. How can the unlimited place fit into something limited? As long as we are egotistical, our love is not love. It's something that looks like love, but it's not love. It can be sexual attraction, may be mercy, may be respect, may be the need to protect or be protected, but it is not love. All of them we call love, but they are nothing but limited reflections of unlimited love.
Let's learn to really love, never ask for anything in exchange for our love. For the sake of it, let us rejoice that we are allowed to manifest our love. They seem crazy these words today when such love is almost neglected. I can not see her in movies (not even in cartoons). But as long as someone remembers it and wishes from all over the heart to manifest it, there is still hope for her to rejuvenate. Love your self from all your heart and be not ashamed of this love. Many people hate themselves, often without a real reason, just out of boredom or crazy ignorance. Love yourself as you are if you want to transform yourself. Do not expect to transform yourself to come to love, because nothing can be turned into good for lack of love.
"Love your neighbor as yourself," but how do you love your neighbor when you do not love yourself?
As you care for your own life, care for everyone's life and then your life will get a sublime dimension.
Many agree that true love is wonderful and asks me how to reach her. She is already in you, there is no magic recipe for pure love. Self-giving, total sacrifice, prayer, and Divine Grace will surely lead you wherever you want, but you must want it from all your heart, from all your mind and from all your soul.
A fragment from the book Art of Living by Cristian Turcanu
Love is the vital elixir, the source of health, power, and energy for every human being.

Definition by Herbert Harris
Love is the wing given by God to the soul, so that it may ascend to Him.
A definition known by Michelangelo
Love is the essence of God.
Classic definition by Ralph Waldo Emerson
Love is when the soul begins to sing, and the flowers of your life bloom alone.
A famous definition by Rabindranath Tagore
Love is the supreme law of the universe: a mysterious law that rules and regulates everything from the inanimate atom to the rational beings: from it it departs and towards it converges, as an irresistible attraction center, all our thoughts and actions.
A famous definition by Gustavo Adolfo Becquer
Love? What is love? He thought. Love is in the way of death. Love is life. All I understand, I understand only because I love. Everything that exists exists because I love it. It's all about love alone. Love is God, and when you die means that you, a part of love, turn to the eternal source of all things.
A famous definition by Lev Tolstoy
Love is life. And if you lack love, you miss your life.
