Love is not a transaction; Sadhguru about Love

-difference between selfishness and loving oneself
-There is no such thing as loving yourself.
-Love is an experience that happens to you.
-Love is not a transaction. Love is a beautiful thing that happens within you.
It cannot happen outside of you. It may find expression outside,
but it’s something that can happen only within you

Love is a state of being. Once you find that love in yourself, you can then share it out. It's not about another person. It's about connecting to you, you are love. You then gift love to everyone else. Then one day, if it's for you, a reflection of you will show up.

[@GROOVwithme]

Actually, it's more than that, he is talking from a male perspective. In women, the feeling of love is produced by Oxytocin that guides the entire reproductive journey of a woman and her bonding with her child. Women chase Oxytocin and feel rejected when it's not reciprocated in a relationship. Men on high oxytocin have better erections but it's not as high in men compared to women. It's more than just a pleasant feeling - it's bonding for women, it makes her commit and start a family. It makes a mother love her child. Its right in our social fabric

Yes, I see what he’s saying, prob is that it doesn’t help a traumatised person who has dissociated. I did a massive spiritual bypass for years and years. It wasn’t until I connected fully with myself with self compassion too rather than ONLY sending it to others, that I became spiritually whole somehow

[@pug9431]

Very true. I believe Sadhguru is missing something in translation here. To love yourself means to accept yourself as one who deserves the compassion that anyone else does and act accordingly. If you do not love yourself in this way, you are unjustly depriving yourself of love.

[@jacklynabalahin8899]

Thank you for this

[@JeffCaplan313]

We're "supposed to" love AND respect/fear our self/the Lord.

[@JP-gf3fs]

I still believe that you can cultivate love within yourself. We dont have to experience it always from others, or from our surroundings.

[@jordanferguson2254]

Agree 🍀

[@1shu]

Love can only be cultivated from within. It doesn't happen outside the body. Sadhguru meant you can fall in love with someone or something and can cultivate those sweet emotions within yourself but you can't love your own self cause love is something that happens between two people.

[@JenniferEMasters]

I agree. Self-love doesn't "JUST HAPPEN." Not until we become enlightened. What about before that???? We have to wait on it? Not true. We can learn to cultivate self-love the unconditional love we didn't receive from our parents.

I simply have no ideology or reason to look down on others. If you put me down, I consider your intelligence and love which is lacking at the moment, your judgment of me. I prefer not to fight about anything.

[@thebigcountry8518]

So you are saying that feeling you have had for someone. That feeling of love and bliss. You feel that way about yourself ? That is schizo ! I will go along with having Self Respect, but loving yourself as we all understand the emotion to be..If you feel that way towards yourself..Please slide off the end of the bench and stay there !

[@christineveazey4345]

@@thebigcountry8518 No, you are seeing it from your perspective. I only mean that I love myself insofar as I respect myself as I would respect another person, love myself as I would love another person. I am not schizo, bro. I protect myself from abusive people just as I would protect another. Furthermore, when anybody puts an abusive person before theirself, they have no respect for theirself or love. They let bad people go on doing what they are doing. Until one can see theirself as worthy of the same consideration as one gives another, even if a stranger, that puts theirself of danger of abusive people taking advantage. Try it sometime. Move yourself out of the way of an abusive person by loving and protecting yourself as you love others. You will have no more problems from an abusive person. To continually forgive them and stay in the same situation is abusing yourself and helping them to continue abusing you.

[@thebigcountry8518]

@@christineveazey4345 I know what you are saying, but as with most people. It's a misuse of the true meaning of the word. Love is an emotion towards something or somebody else. It's felt. When you hear the saying "You gotta love yourself,before you can expect someone to love you"..That's not meant in the literal sense of the true definition of love. Again, the misuse of the word is used there. We get the meaning. It's just misused ! In the video he explains the TRUE meaning of the word LOVE. Then again, you may love yourself i dunno...oof

[@AmyFerguson]

You can love what you build with another person. There is something you get with others, with your relationship with others, that is not possible with yourself. We are social creatures. There is a flow, back and forth between two people. One builds on the other.

Think he is talking from an absolute point here --- from the extreme of 'altruism' that a guru like him may reach, in other words, when you're interested in the wellbeing of every-thing, love is no longer necessary, since every-thing already includes that one person, the family, the nation etc. But on any other level people need to concentrate their energy on loving that one thing or another, is important. You can identify with everything and be on the right path, or identify only with yourself and be left behind; or somewhere in between, is the beauty of life.
