One of the first things they ask you in the ER is to rate your pain on a scale from one to ten. I've been asked this question hundreds of times and I remember once when I couldn't catch my breath and it felt like my chest was on fire… the nurse asked meto rate the pain. Though I couldn't speak, I held up nine fingers. Later, when I started feeling better, the nurse came in and she called me a fighter."You know how I know?" she said. "You called a ten a nine." But that wasn't the truth. I didn't call it a nine because I was brave. The reason I called it a nine was because I was saving my ten. And this was it. This was the great and terrible ten.

All Meditation is pretence without Love. All knowledge is shallow without Love. Infinite is the wealth of Love. Through Love one meets the Supreme Creator. All Dhyan [meditation] is pretence without Love. All knowledge is shallow without Love. All scriptures are sham without Love. Kaal [the lord of time/lord of death] and Karma are overcome by Love. Mana [mind] and Maya [illusion] are subdued by Love. Surat [the soul] ascends to higher regions by Love. Love dispels all evils. One is detached from world by Love. Refulgence within, one perceives by Love. Every heart overflows with Love. Most exalted is the glory of Love. All endeavours are in vain without Love. All activities are void without Love. One is redeemed by Love and Love alone.
Prem Bani Radhasoami, Volume 4, by Huzur Maharaj
काममय एवायं पुरुष इति। स यथाकामो भवति तत्क्रतुर्भवति। यत्क्रतुर्भवति तत्कर्म कुरुते। यत्कर्म कुरुते तदभिसंपद्यते॥
You are what your deep, driving desire is As your desire is, so is your will As your will is, so is your deed As your deed is, so is your destiny
