I must here warn you of a danger. There is a rough-and- ready way
from: of quickly bringing about dispassion. Some say to you: "Kill outall love and affection; harden your hearts; become cold to all
around you; desert your wife and children, your father and
mother, and fly to the desert or the jungle; put a wall between
youself and all objects of desire; then dispassion will be yours."
It is true that it is comparatively easy to acquire dispassion in that way.
But by that you kill more than desire. You put round the Self, who
is love, a barrier through which he is unable to pierce.
You cramp yourself by encircling yourself with a thick shell, and
you cannot break through it. You harden yourself where you ought
to be softened; you isolate yourself where you ought to be embracing
others; you kill love and not only desire, forgetting that love clings
to the Self and seeks the Self, while desire clings to the sheaths of
the Self, the bodies in which the Self is clothed. Love is the desire of the
separated Self for union with all other separated Selves.
Dispassion is the non-attraction to matter--a very different
thing. You must guard love--for it is the very Self of the Self.
In your anxiety to acquire dispassion do not kill out love. Love
is the life in everyone of us, separated Selves. It draws every
separated Self to the other Self. Each one of us is a part of one
mighty whole.
Efface desire as regards the vehicles that clothe
the Self, but do not efface love as regards the Self, that
never-dying force which draws Self to Self. In this great
up-climbing, it is far better to suffer from love rather than to
reject it, and to harden your hearts against all ties and claims
of affection. Suffer for love, even though the suffering be bitter.
Love, even though the love be an avenue of pain. The pain
shall pass away, but the love shall continue to grow, and in the
unity of the Self you shall finally discover that love is the
great attracting force which makes all things one.
Many people, in trying to kill out love, only throw themselves
back, becoming less human, not superhuman; by their mistaken
attempts. It is by and through human ties of love and sympathy
that the Self unfolds. It is said of the Masters that They love
all humanity as a mother loves her firstborn son.
Their love is not love watered down to coolness, but love for all
raised to the heat of the highest particular loves of smaller souls.
Always mistrust the teacher who tells you to kill out love, to be
indifferent to human affections. That is the way which leads to
the left-hand path.
