Let’s give the exact meaning of love and ego. Why choose love over ego in relationships today… First we need to define love. Love is accepting the person as it is and respecting for the same whereas, Ego is the attachment with wrong image of the self.
Use original qualities of soul
We have the quality of love in us, as we are souls with seven original qualities of love, happiness, peace, purity, power, knowledge, and bliss.
As we take many births, we forget these qualities and search the same in external environment because we want to experience these again. We are not aware that we have all this quality within us. And we just time with ourselves and God to experience all these emotions.
We seek love from other people and mark some situations as favorable for feeling loved, also, for radiating love.
For an instance, we mark the situation of feeling loved when the person we love does the actions we expect. We feel that that’s how we control them, but
we don’t understand that the person had a choice to do because it mattered to him. He chose to do so because he had a reason. It must do nothing with our
controlling power over loved one. It’s ego which entangles there and tells you that; you control his actions well and that’s reason he did.
Radiating love or seeking love?
For radiating love, we create the same criteria, that if he does this for me, in return I will do this for him, this clearly states that how we calculate love as
business today.
I am not telling it’s what all people do, but somewhere people do radiate love as business deal or name this business deal as love.
Analyzing the Ego in relationship:
Ego has a subtle role in our thinking as well as it is the major reason of unhappiness and if not detected at thought level, it comes in our words and then actions accordingly.
Ego can easily be observed as the thought which makes us experience negative emotions of doubt, sorrow, irritability, anger, frustration and then blaming of all these emotions lands on people, their behaviours, and situations.
Why Choose Love?
Love is I choose to give respect and accept their behavior and their personality traits as it is and do not wish them to change and I do not associate my thoughts, feelings, and actions on their behavior basis as well as I do not control them.
I just do my actions in awareness of how I want to think about them and how I want to behave with them, what I want to do for them with the reason that I want to do because this matters to me irrespective of thinking of any results or getting favours in return. Giving selflessly is love, Pure love.
Concluding with love:
In the present scenario, where the world is full of ego and vices, choosing to love and radiating love becomes difficult in the starting but, as we choose it with awareness, it become the habit and it flows unforcedly from us.
Becoming embodiment of love requires practice of soul consciousness and art of giving irrespective of any situation, people’s behavior. This seems hard, but only when we don’t know how to do it as we will start to do it with determination and consistency. This will get into our subconscious and become our original way of dealing with people.
