The Ultimate Law of Love and Compassion

If you really think, observe, and research the greatest minds on Earth, their highest revelation is the ultimate law of love or compassion. And this is the true measure of being a true achiever and a person of success on all levels, meaning in thinking, emotions, and deeds.

The Avatar Krishna said you can only approach absolute reality, or God, and have true peace by practicing compassion. The prophet Muhammad said that Allah, or God, is all-merciful and all-compassionate. The Buddha expressed his highest teachings by saying that to attain enlightenment, the practice of radiating loving-kindness is of the utmost on a daily basis.

The physicist Albert Einstein said, “Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty.” The Lord Jesus Christ said God is love and commanded humanity to love thy neighbor as thyself. He even told his disciples that when he is gone, they should love one another as He had loved them.

The yogi Paramahansa Yogananda said the highest attainment in life is love and to live every moment in one’s life in a kind and compassionate way. So, whatever we attain, whatever we achieve in science, philosophy, culture, or material affluence, we must use them to serve all creatures in a compassionate way. Then one will achieve the highest attainment in being a true human, humane, and a true humanitarian. So, try to live your life in thinking, in emotion, and in daily activities in the name of the ultimate law called Love or Compassion.
