True Love is Unconditional

With regards to love & respect, must we get to know the other person well in order for us to love & respect that person better?
If love & respect is not defined that way, how is love & respect seen from source perspective?

The general public has that thinking in mind - normally more comfortable with people that they know before they start opening their hearts, so to speak. When one feels that one needs to know the other person better, one is unknowingly putting up conditions/expectations. When we do that, we love based on our benchmark, our own set of 'rules'...

From CLT Practitioners' point of view, love is unconditional.

I noticed that this is a very common problem. it is so subtle that you are not even aware that you are loving with expectations. Eg If you are taking care of a loved one and he is not responding to your advice even though you express with love. And you get visibly upset by it, you are actually expressing love with expectations without realising it,

You are right. Expressing love with expectation or with intention is not true love, is not selfless love. But at least we must aware that there is room for us to improve,to refine our mind and our character. If the Source is giving us free will, then we should given others the free will too.

It takes 3 to love: you, your spouse, and the Source.

Persons appear to us according to the light we throw upon them from our own minds.

True love begins when expectation ends.

What I gathered Love is a gift. No one realised that when a person express something, he is actually preparing a gift to someone who will benefit from it. When you are giving a gift, you put your heart in the expression of the gift. Only true gift comes without condition and expectations. We are focus on the giving, never the receiving.

Love Fearlessly

In this dense 3-dimensional world, or the physical realm in that matter, humans are conditioned to understand everything in duality. This basically means to comprehend all things in contrast. Many humans know love only with the experience or perception of fear, hate, deception and negativity that's why the concept of 'Love' has been altered from its primordial origins to a state of being conditioned in this era. Conditioned love is love with a trace of its polar opposite, 'fear'. An common example is people who think they love themselves and cultivate a mindset of healthy eating but is it really to promote the maintenance of a healthy body or is it an unspoken prevention of diseases, which in the latter basically means the fear of falling sick. To love unconditionally, whether to yourself or others is to be in a state of fearlessness and total allowance and surrender to all there is. It doesn't mean to stop caring for your loved ones but it is an expasion of the awareness to respect and promote the free will of all organic and inorganic beings, in all layers of dimensions. Unconditional love is what the world has probably forgotten in its path of evolution and to remember this form of true love is the single, most magnificent form of pure light that will heal all of us from all the imbalances that has permeated this reality.
