Excerpts from speeches delivered by Siddha Yogi Shri
Siva Shankar Baba
The dwelling place of a poor
person is called a hut, a bigger house accommodating a
middle class person is called an apartment, a luxurious
house is called a bungalow. The accommodation of a king
is called a palace. The place where God resides is known
as a temple. If it is the abode of Jesus, it is called a
Church, of Allah, it is called a Mosque.
Similarly, a relationship based on love is given a
particular nomenclature. The love between a mother and
child is called affection. The love between two equals
is called friendship. The love for an elder is termed
respect. Love for God is understood as devotion. When
you attain a magnitude of love having no boundaries,
then it is Love. Love of God is Ultimate Love. The
emotion is the same, the name is different but that does
not make any difference to the underlying feeling. Love
is not limited to loving, even hate stems from love. A
motive for X murdering Y could be that Y misbehaved with
X’s wife whom X loves. The basic feeling is love here,
isn’t it? So love motivates love as well as hatred.
Love expressed towards God is commonly known as
devotion. But the highest form of devotion is Love.
