1. Charm - The love that comes out of charm does not last long. It comes out of unfamiliarity or attraction. In this, you lose the attraction fast and boredom sets in., like in most love marriages. This love may diminish and bring along with it fear, uncertainty, insecurity and sadness.
2. Comfort - The love that comes out of comfort and familiarity grows. But this love has no thrill, no enthusiasm, joy or fire in it. For example, you are more comfortable with an old friend who is familiar rather than with a new person. Divine love supersedes both. It has an ever present newness. The closer you are more will be the charm and depth. There is never any boredom and it keeps everyone on their toes.
3. Divinity - Worldly love can be like ocean, yet an ocean has a bottom. Divine love is like the sky, which is limitless and infinite. From the bottom of the ocean, you should soar into the vast sky. It is beyond relationships. Often our love is in terms of some relationship - father, mother, brother, sister, wife, friend Master, disciple, etc.
But Divine love transcends all these relationships and is inclusive of all. Any relationship brings a limitation But Divine love is beyond limitations.
~ Sri Sri Ravi Shankarji
