Here’s the fear:
“If I wake up, will I stop loving my partner, my children, my friends?”
It’s a real question many seekers whisper in private.
The Illusion of Personal Love
We mistake love for attachment.
For the highs and lows of romance, care, and drama.
And yes — awakening does cut through those attachments.
It burns away the “my” in “my love.”
But what remains isn’t coldness.
It’s love without owner.
Love without conditions.
From Possession to Presence
When love is tied to ego, it becomes a transaction.
“When you fulfill me, I’ll love you.”
“When you disappoint me, I’ll withdraw.”
But in awakening, love stops bargaining.
It becomes presence itself.
It doesn’t mean you stop hugging your child or enjoying your partner.
It means the embrace is free of need.
Can Relationships Survive?
Some relationships fall apart.
Not because love dies,
but because illusion can no longer hold them together.
Others deepen —
as both people are touched by something greater than themselves.
Truth Doesn’t Kill Love
Truth doesn’t destroy love.
It purifies it.
What dies is possession.
What shines is boundless compassion.
