Nothing Can Intoxicate You Like Love

Being centred, being 100% in activity and rest. That is the way to be in divine love.

- Gurudev

There is nothing that can intoxicate you like love. And all the intoxication that people use is to be in that love, is in the search for that love but they are searching for it in the wrong place. It is the frustration, the nonfulfilment that makes one go for intoxicants. What happens when you are intoxicated? The ‘two’ disappears; the ‘other’ vanishes. When the other vanishes, then you are at ease and love is that which gives you that ease, that comfort.

Divine love intoxicates you. Just knowing divine love, you get intoxicated, spellbound and wonder-struck. When we are miserable, we ask many questions, “Why this, Why this?” When the questions turn into wonder, love arises. Love does not give rise to more questions, it is the answer to all questions. Love is not a path. Love is home. Love brings you back home. Love is not an act or an action. It is a result.
