"In the stage of perfection...one's mind is completely restrained from material mental activities by practice of yoga. This perfection is characterized by one's ability to see the self by the pure mind and to relish and rejoice in the self. In that joyous state, one is situated in boundless transcendental happiness, realized through transcendental senses. Established thus, one never departs from the truth, and upon gaining this he thinks there is no greater gain."
-Bhagavad Gita 6.20-23

Blinded By Our Own Light
I believe we don't dare to experience ourselves as profound and beautiful, so we fall in love. Because through their eyes, we can begin to gaze upon our own beauty. It gives us a way to own up to our divine nature.
Oh Becca, how true how true! Beautifully said.
