“El
amor despierto es un flujo continuo de compasión, es cuando podemos
colocarnos en el lugar del otro y sentir su dolor, cuando reconocemos el
potencial dormido en el otro y damos fuerza para que ese potencial se
manifieste. Es unas ganas sinceras de ver al otro brillar, de ver al
otro feliz y satisfecho. Esto es lo que llamo ‘auténtico altruismo’. La
principal característica del amor despierto es la entrega desinteresada.
Así como la flor esparce su perfume y su belleza gratuitamente, así
como el sol esparce su calor y su luz, así como la lluvia moja la
tierra, y el agua mata la sed, la esencia del ser humano ama.”
Libro “Amar y Ser Libre”
"Awakened love is a continuous flow of compassion. From this state, we can put ourselves in someone else's shoes and feel their pain. When love awakens we recognize the dormant potential in each other and give supportfor this potential to manifest. It is a sincere desire to see the other shine, be happy and feel satisfied. This is also called authentic altruism, as the main characteristic of awakened love is selfless giving. Just as a flower spreads its fragrance and beauty freely, the sun emanates its warmth and light, the rain wets the earth, and as water quenches thirst, the essence of human beings is to love."
