    I find it difficult to love everyone.
  • federicafederica Seeker of the clear blue sky... Its better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to speak out and remove all doubt Moderator
    I don't. It's actually very easy.
    The big problem is 'liking' everyone. That's more difficult.....

    When we set aside our judgments, our opinons. When we stop seeking out side of this moment infinite unconditional love will flow from the heart. All there will be is love and bliss in this eternal moment of now.

    Its more controlled by suffering - how do you love a person that causes you sufferring and the people around you suffering?

    :D Maybe we should have a group hug smiley!!

    No one causes anybody else suffering. We are responsible for our own suffering. it is all perspective. And when you step out of opinion you live and creat from the heart

    I tried this idea out for a while and i kind of came to this conclusion. When I initially started practicing buddhism to the best of my ability i noticed that I changed my ways and i started to be able to see the good in people so much more.

    Then i started to notice the people who were inflicting suffering on others and thats the point that stopped being able to see things with these almost rose tinted glasses on. I wish I could master this skill but im far from it though.

    you are perfect and beautiful as you are here and now. You are the way you are now for a reason. It will come. Just know all is one. When we judge something as good bad, right wrong, worst best, we are judging our selves. Not necessarily the egoic identity we beleive our selves to be but the oneness of the Universe

    When all thoughts of resentment are gone. When all judgments are given up. When all is forgiven. when all is embraced with love. One will behold an eternal sense of wonder. Raging storms no longer will ravage with winds and rain. The sun will shine upon your being with love. In this moment you will see. You will see I am. Through all fire and shadows you will be carried in a dome of light

    Typically, we suffer more because of our own judgment of a situation than due to the situation itself. Think of how long we hold suffering within ourself (anger, fear, etc) long after the situation has passed. There is great freedom in letting go

    Im just a long way away from being so able to love those who have caused me suffering. Id need to be seriously compassionate but thats a long way away.

    Every time thoughts of resentment of these people occure consciously create the thought I love them. I forgive them. It will take time but these created thoughts will manifest with in your being if you practice this with dedication.

    Try watching this video it may help you out. Know when he uses the word "god" he is not using it in the way most do. he uses it as in the universe. as in self. As in the formless that is true self

    Love me? Well okay. But I gotta go immature and play it safe with this one.
    Just make sure these 3 conditions are met:
    a. It's not simply hormonal thing. Those things are way too contagious.
    b. You're not a guy
    c. You're a Playboy Bunny.

    Embarrassed

    Nah..., joking..., When people are annoying or mad or insulting, I love those people like I love my pets: they can't help it. They're being driven by instinct or bad habits.

    Otherwise? When people are being normal and just plain nice and everybody's mutually respectful? I __LIKE__ them very much.

    Too much routine "love" gets in the way. I dunno. Just something I thought up in the last three minutes.

    Peace Sign
