God as FATHER is WISDOM. God as MOTHER is LOVE.
God, as Father, resides in the Eye of Wisdom. The Eye of Wisdom is situated between the eyebrows.
God, as Love, is found in the Heart-Temple. Wisdom and Love are the two fundamental columns of the Great White Lodge.
To Love, how beautiful it is to Love. Only great souls can and know how to Love. Love is infinite tenderness… Love is the life that palpitates in every atom as it palpitates in every sun.
Love cannot be defined because it is the Divine Mother of the World; it is that which comes to us when we are really in love.
Love is felt in the depths of the heart; it is a delicious experience, it is a fire that consumes, it is a divine wine, delirium of the one who drinks it. A simple perfumed handkerchief, a letter, a flower, cause deep down in the soul tremendous intimate inquietudes, exotic ecstasies, ineffable voluptuousness.
No one has ever been able to define Love; it has to be experienced, it has to be felt. Only the great lovers really know what is that which is called Love.
Perfect Matrimony is the union of two beings who truly know how to Love.
For there to be truly Love, it is necessary for man and woman to adore each other in all the seven great cosmic planes.
For there to be Love, it is necessary for a true communion of souls to exist in the three spheres of Thought, Feeling and Will.
When both beings vibrate in affinity in their thoughts, feelings and volitions, then the Perfect Matrimony takes place in the seven planes of cosmic consciousness.
There are people who are married in the physical and etheric planes, but in the astral, they are not. Others are married in the physical, etheric and astral planes, but they are not in the mental plane; each one thinks in his own way; the woman has one religion and the man another; they do not agree on what they think, etc., etc., etc.
There are matrimonies in affinity in the worlds of thought and feeling, but absolutely opposite in the world of will. Those matrimonies clash constantly, they are not happy.
The Perfect Matrimony must take place in the seven planes of cosmic consciousness. There are matrimonies that do not even reach the astral plane; then there is not even sexual attraction; those are true failures. That type of matrimony is based exclusively on a marital formula.
Some people live a marital life in the physical plane with a certain spouse, and in the mental plane, they live a conjugal life with another, different spouse. Rarely in life do we find a Perfect Matrimony. For there to be Love, there need to be an i affinity of thoughts, affinity of feelings and wills.
Where there is arithmetic calculation, there is no Love. Unfortunately, in modern life, Love smells of bank accounts, of merchandise and celluloid. In those homes where there are only additions and subtractions, there is no Love. When Love leaves the heart, it hardly returns.
Love is a very elusive child.
A matrimony that is realized without love, solely on the bases of economic or social interest, is really a sin against the Holy Spirit. That type of matrimony inevitably fails.
Lovers frequently mistake Desire for Love, and the worst of the matter is that they get married believing themselves to be in love. Once the sexual act is consummated, once the carnal passion is satisfied, comes then the disenchantment, the terrible reality remains.
The lovers must self-analyze themselves before getting married in order to know if they really are in love. Passion is easily mistaken for Love. Love and Desire are absolute opposites.
The one who is truly in love is capable of giving even the last drop of blood for the adored one.
Examine yourself before getting married. Do you feel capable of giving even the last drop of blood for the one you adore? Would you be capable of giving your life for your adored one to live?
Reflect and meditate.
Is there a true affinity of thoughts, feelings and wills with the one who you adore? Remember that if that complete affinity does not exist, then your matrimony, instead of heaven, will be a true hell. Do not allow yourself to be carried away by desire. “Kill not only the desire, but even the very shadow of the tempting tree of desire.” Love begins with a lightning flash of delightful sympathy, it substantiates with infinite tenderness and it synthesizes in supreme adoration.
A Perfect Matrimony is the union of two beings who absolutely adore each other. In Love there are no projects or bank accounts. If you are making projects and calculations, it is because you are not in love. Reflect before taking the big step. Are you really in love? Beware of the illusion of desire. Remember that the flame of desire consumes life and then the tremendous reality of death remains.
Contemplate the eyes of the one that you adore, lose yourself in the joy of her pupils, but if you want to be happy, do not allow yourself to be carried away by desire.
Man in love, do not confuse Love for passion. Self-analyze yourself profoundly.
It is urgent to know if she belongs to you in spirit. It is necessary to know if you are in complete affinity with her in the three worlds of thought, feeling and will.
Adultery is the cruel result of the lack of Love. A woman truly in love would prefer death to adultery. A man who commits adultery is not in love.
Love is terribly divine. The Blessed Mother Goddess of the World is that which is called Love.
With the terrible fire of Love, we can transform ourselves into Gods, to penetrate, full of majesty, into the amphitheater of Cosmic Science.
