Your very nature is LOVE...

Your very nature is Love.
You cannot survive even for a moment, 
when deprived of Love.
 
It is the very breadth of your life. 
 
When the six vices, to which
you were attached so long, disappear, 
Love becomes the only occupant of your heart.
 
Love has to find an object, a loved one.
It cannot remain alone.
 
You will then direct it to the charming, sweet Lord, 
who is Purity Personified, who is the embodiment of service,
sacrifice and selflessness and who has taken residence
in the cleansed altar of your heart. 
 
Then, there will be no scope for any 
other attachment to grow. 
 
Step by step, this love for God becomes deeper, 
purer, more self-denying, until at last, there is no need for thoughts,
and the individual is merged in the Universal.
