Its been fascinating and challenging - and one thing it suggests to me is that unconditional love could be a very efficient way to integrate and calm the disparate inner voices of shame. I think i see why your models suggested this would be a valuable and popular sub and my guess is that this will contribute a lot to how future subs work in healing the self.
I guess my question is how much do you think that 'love is the answer' to the many ills we have and whether you could share any insight on the role of love in development and healing.
If there was a perfect experience of the right kinds of love for each person on this planet, there would likely be few to no negatives to being alive. At the very least, they would be greatly reduced. Love in development is probably the single most critical thing every child needs. To be, and feel, loved, cared about and taken care of. Humans, much as we like to deny it, need love like we need to breathe. But there is another couple of factors involved that complicate matters, and those get into Rule 4 stuff. Those explain why you can take a child who was given all the love in the world, and have him turn around and brutally murder the very family who gave him that love in the first place. It gets into the birth pattern and the soul that is born through the body.
Love with regards to healing is a very important thing also. The right kinds of love can help heal physical as well as emotional wounds. Love, properly included, can heal anything. If when you are healing a physical injury, you spend time focusing feelings of genuine love on the cells that are damaged and healing, you will heal faster. If you focus love on an emotional wound, it will begin to soften and then heal faster, provided that the body (especially the brain) is not damaged in a way that makes it impossible. But the love must be of the right type and it must be included in the right way. I have found that certain types of love are of limited use for healing, and some have no use at all.
I believe that all things in the universe ultimately originate from love. That we do not always experience that love is so that we have some reason to act and grow, instead of stagnate inside a warm blanket of cozy love forever.
Quote: I won't name names but thinking back to some of the darker voices that have been on this forum, there were guys who had no sense of the humanity of women, and others who seemed unable to get people at all. I wonder how much a sense of unconditional love would have solved their numbness/neuroses.
If I was to create a subliminal that induced a sense of unconditional love in a 3 year old, it would still act according to it's level of understanding and awareness. So too with young souls. Those who see the world as "me vs not-me" are very young souls who have not yet come to understand that we are all connected in ways that make us all hurt when we hurt one another. The greatest tool in the world will not act with wisdom; that is the job of the wielder of the tool. Experiencing unconditional love may help them grow and give them an expanded sense of what is, but they must have the right understanding to do with it what is the best thing to do. In this world, the most common way to learn is to make mistakes and suffer the consequences. Very few learn any other way.
