Your body houses you but you do not own it. Nor does the body own you unless you build an altar to it. If your body is foremost in your mind, then you have given your allegiance to it. You have made it the master and you the servant. When the perfection of the physical is the basis for love, the physical owns you.

Let attraction for another be more than the shape of their limbs. Hone your eyes to the sustenance of the beauty that lasts. Let two souls touch, and then the body follow. Let there be love more than usage.

Do not let the physical body interfere with love. Don't let the physical come between you and love. Love incurred by the physical, no matter how charming, cannot sustain you. Love grows and grows upward. The physical will sag.

Enjoy the physical, but do not hold it as your emblem. The physical, being only physical, is bound to let you down, while the soul grows stronger in the union of love. Love surpasses everything. You have the choice to love. You might have thought that love is something that happens to you. It seems to you to arise when it arises, but you can make the heartfelt choice to love.

Everyone seeks true love. You seek true love, and yet sometimes you forget that love is something that issues from your heart. If you possess anything, you are the possessor of love. Let love be the window you look from, and so cultivate yourself to love. Love exists. So, cultivate it.

Love is not the return you get. Love from another is not enough. All the love in the world poured on you is little unless your heart pours. Your heart is the cup that runneth over. Stir love in your own heart.

Do not predict love but culture it. Invite it. Let your heart love for all its worth. It is worth a lot. Let your heart be a bell that rings no matter who hears it. Let your heart carillon love so that it reaches everywhere.

A bell that does not ring is yet a bell. But its happiness is to ring. You have to ring the bell of your heart. Your heart would have you activate it. Free your heart to ring.

Your heart has a full amount of love. That is not in question. What is in question is how much love you serve. Your guests are the whole world and everyone in it. I too am your Guest in that I like to be received. Of course, I am a permanent Guest, a Tenant, you could say. I have a lease in your heart. You could even say that I am the Clapper of the Bell of your heart. Certainly, I am the Center of it.

It is I you ring when you love. I am the clarion of love. I am the Love and I am the stirrings in your heart. It is up to you to spend Me. Be a spendthrift of My love. That is what you are on earth for. My love in your heart is not to be stored. It can never run out. The inventory of My love is always replaced with more. It multiplies as you give it. You cannot spend it too fast. Your heart will fill up with love.

Heretofore, you may have concentrated My love in your heart and given it to only a few souls on earth. Now you know that love is something you issue from your heart irrespective of who is before you. In any case, you can know that I am before you.
