Today’s Question by the reader : Susan
I wonder if there is anything like ‘unconditional love’? Why does love cause hurt, if its unconditional?
Definitely there is unconditional love. This love, in its very core, comes from within. It is what moves us in the direction of our true selves.
There’s a beautiful quote in the Upanishads that states:
“In all persons, all creatures, the Self is the innermost essence. And it is identical with Brahman: our real Self is not different from the ultimate Reality called God.”

The pianist in the shopping center - part 1
Paulo Coelho
I am strolling casually through a shopping center in the company of a violinist friend. Ursula, born in Hungary, is today a top musician in two international philharmonic orchestras. All of a sudden she grabs my arm:
“Listen!”
I listen. I hear voices, adult voices, children shouting, noises of televisions turned on in electrical-appliance shops, high heels clip-clopping on the tiled floor, and that well-known music that is omnipresent in shopping centers the world over.
“So, isn’t it

Today’s Question by the reader : Ankit
How can we be able to retain good values in ourselves?
I don’t see this from this perspective – I don’t think we “retain” good values. This would mean that we would be trying to keep inside ourselves things that ultimately do not belong to us.
