The opposite of love.

[Rah nam]

On an emotional level the opposite of love is hate.
The love that comes from source has no opposite.

The opposite of love is love'lessness.

Because a person who is totally in discordanance with God's loving way, well that person has reaped all that they have sown.

That unloving person "becomes" all that they have been practicing. & their Soulself has become void of love, due to that great law that "one will always reap exactly as they sow".

& so they will be left void of spiritual light, life & abundance, void of spiritual physicality..(body), void of empathy, void of happiness, void of love & truth....void in all things good & propper etc etc.

In a nut shell, the above is the opposite of love.

In regards to this great law, "one will always reap exactly as they sow", this sounds a lot like some sort of a universal "eye for an eye" karmic law.

What about other laws such as "forgive your enemies", or "be kind to those who persecute you". How do they play in?

On an emotional level the opposite of love is hate.

And what creates hate?

[Rah nam]

disordinance would be the most accurate answer.


(love comes before hate) on an emotional level

I'll have to agree to disagree on that one atm.

This great law is not man's law, this great law is gods law, & no person can avoid it. every person is subject to this law, each person is their own judge & jury as this law works ceaselessly & to the letter. this great law is how loving beings grow immensely radiant & abundant & full of happiness & life.

This great law is nessesary for spiritual progress into a life of abundance, in the higher spheres/realms of the lesser spiritual Heavens, without this great law no man can progress past the beginning of the first sphere of the lesser heavens..(the Summerlands).this great law enhances one Soulself so that they can withstand the higher intensities of the higher spheres of the natural love Heavens..Summerlands.

This great law also deals with the unloving beings, they lose light, love & abundance & become depleted in size, shape & complexion, shrinking, depleting with every unloving act.
Till they do not even have a spiritual body to be seen..and this is known as the second death...eventually left with literally untold years of HELLISH suffering, with only a thirst for the dark minded deeds that they have practice for so long...."gnashing of teeth".

& yes i do not hold a grudge against anyone for anything, understanding & forgiveness to all, even dark minded nasty spiritual beings.
Neil.

I agree. "There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment" 1John 4:18...….

Why do we fear? We fear because we fear rejection(because we, too, have rejected others) We fear because we are afraid of being judged(once again, because we too have judged). We fear because we think we might not be forgiven(because we know that we do not forgive). Our ego constructs an image that we do not want questioned. Our ego has constructed a little box that we live in, we want this small order to remain intact. This means rather than being open-minded we are more comfortable with our own close-minded concept of the world and especially others.

If a person changes then a comparison can be seen and must happen, the best way to see. Others see (the lesson) upon return to soul. The person may become but does not remain so, but returns, seeing experience change or not. There is imo no such thing as unloving, especially in terms of self. In the cycle of reincarnation one (finally) ends up seeing. If a person "becomes", what were they before, loving or unloving or not knowing? Unloving is not a permanent state of soul but the illusion of the body imo.

I agree, so it is not an opposite. There is no such thing (reality) that is opposite. Buddha would use the word attachment, that which is a reason. Fear is but reasoning. It becomes a "thing".
