Course VI - Teaching 10: Works of Love - 1956
Divine Mother’s love will has to move all actions of the Sons of Cafh.
This only feeling must totally renew their lives.
And this divine task must begin in their thoughts.
Their actions must be known and oriented in their root. Any ordinary thought must be substituted for emanating and expansive thoughts.
If the soul is determined by love, all is subject to love; then, love that beings receive is not an effort granted like something disconnected from the soul itself, but is love in itself. A love transferred, distributed and limited, that goes to-and-fro, and separate from love itself, is not love.
Love is a self-expanded and self-contracted act; it is the very love: Love of the Divine Mother.
I think of Love, I work in love, and I live in Love of the Divine Mother.
Love, like an expression of living thought, removes differences, annihilates prejudices, and undoes knots of differentiation.
Love, like a source of thought, sees all those souls that must be loved as if they were the very love.
There are no problems of mutual love, but there is a problem of love in itself, in Love of the Divine Mother. Then the act of love becomes act of love in itself, act of pure love.
Differentiation in beings, which brings so many pain and suffering, is just an abuse of love; and then any eventual help, alleviation of evil, solution of conflicts or recovery of lost things is totally in vain.
A transferred love is vain because makes a difference between loved person and lover and becomes source of pain and infinite sorrows.
Divine Mother’s love is the only love that removes any pain, sorrow and bitterness because is love in itself.
It is expansion of the pain of the soul, of the problem of the soul, and of the separateness of the soul.
Divine Mother’s love is not two; it is not to finish; it is not to love and be loved; it is not to suffer and enjoy pains and pleasures of others; it is not to go to-and-fro; it is not to begin and finish; Divine Mother’s love is always love, Love in itself.
If I love other person, I love myself; if I suffer for other fellow, I suffer for myself; his love and his pain are mine, for there are not two loves.
My love must not solve through love the evil of anyone, but my own evil.
Divine Mother’s love is the solution point of any problem and any evil.
I love and I am loved, and this love gives life to another force of love, which wants to live and excel those two loves that created that force.
Divine Mother’s love simply loves and gives to others in itself: the intense love expands but does not go to other but simply is revealed.
I am an expanded little love that recognises itself in its own expansion; I am the other soul, I am other souls, I am heaven of souls, I am all souls.
Neither love comes to me, nor I go to love.
The entire love of souls is my love, and they all are in me.
The littlest pain in any living being is my love, and any pain and separateness in the universe is my bitterness and loneliness.
I am love, and love is me.
Just this is the love of the Divine Mother.
This love must emerge from my thought like a recognised expansion of all souls in the soul of the Son, and their expansion must be like a unique feeling, complete, absolute and simple, without duality, compounds, beginning and end.
Divine Mother’s love is the Son, and the Son is Love of the Divine Mother.
