Love has a very deep and powerful meaning in a spiritual context that has little to do with how the term is used in a personal context. As for the God word, I think many who have embraced the ideas of nonduality have done so by rejecting the dualism and personal God aspect of a religion like Christianity so they find the word problematic. Yes I agree, and that is probably why I don't use the word love very often, sometimes just simple silence is enough.

It is a bit problematic, along with all the synonyms we use to avoid it. I like it because it's only 3 letters. Yes that is certainly true.

Agreed! and I hope it is not "the ideas of non duality" that are being embraced but the EXPERIENCE of non duality. I am coming to like the term GODNESS for that experience, that reality. Experiencing Godness is one thing but talking about it is quite another, especially to someone who has not experienced it. Blessings to all beings.

Reactors when ignited sometimes go slow. A catalyst triggers them to go fast.. Blah blah.. Sometimes it's better to leave the reactors alone to do their thing whatever comes from their cores. The reactors lit bulbs and illuminate the dark. There are reactors turning themselves off in the absence of catalysts. Catalysts make the reactors feel wanted. Or challenged. There are reactors that don't need to be restarted. Neither they have use for catalysts. Their cores are powered by the Infinite.
