Love is the primal essence. Love is the light of the Divine which fills the vastness of eternity with the sweet fragrance of immortal bliss. The practice of love and devotion is an ancient path leading to direct mystical experience of the Supreme. Notable teachers of this path include Jesus, Hafiz, Narada, Ramprasad, and Amma. Finding God’s Love is suitable for any pilgrim of any faith who wishes to experience a direct and personal communion with the Divine. God’s lovers will find immediate access to the living room of God’s heart where they will revel in the bliss and joy of the universe; divinely intoxicated in the breath of the eternally radiant now; swept away in an endless celebration of life.
The first part of the book reveals how love works to release the human psyche from the fetters of its own self-imposed limitations. Love is the antidote to all negative emotions. Love heals the festering wounds that lay buried in our past. Love cleans the lens of the soul allowing the light of the Divine to percolate up from the center of our being illuminating our personal world. The second part of the book explains the practical aspects of this path including meditations, visualizations and prayer. The last section is a collection of teachings from Amma (Mata Amritananda Mayi), the hugging saint, on the practice of love and devotion.
Love is what makes life beautiful because God is love. Love nourishes the delicate flowering of the immortal soul vanquishing boredom once and for all in the magnificence of its ever-fresh ever-mysterious river of divine grace. This book is an invitation to ecstasy – to swim in the ocean of God.
