Gautam Chawalla's Correspondence with The Mother

29 December 1966

Even human love, when it takes hold of us, gives us joy — but inevitably it is followed by suffering. Why?

This world is impermanent and all is passing. Love in its essence and origin is eternal, but the forms in which it manifests on earth are impermanent. It is this in the human consciousness that veils the felicity inherent in love.
