The Code of Love
Just ten words and yet, with their inherent characteristics they describe love in its perfection. What makes it perfect is that every quality noted is applied equally to every human being and all living things in every situation. Were a human being to demonstrate all these qualities all the time then they would rightfully be deemed perfect. But this book is not about being perfect. It is instead a template by which to make different choices that lead to greater harmony.
Consider for a moment the individuals throughout history who have had the greatest impact for good on humankind. Without exception they have demonstrated some, if not many, of these characteristics. Now consider your actions on any given day. No matter where you live in the world, your economic status or position, chances are that, knowingly or unknowingly, you have demonstrated one or more of the aspects of love listed here. For the most part, we don’t think about these actions – we just do them. Even when an action of love is given with intention it comes so naturally that it is not identified in our mind as a component of love.
The elements of love are as specific as the instruments in an orchestra. Each instrument has its own unique properties or characteristics and produces music in a distinctive way. When played alone, depending on the skill and talent of the musician, it can make beautiful music. When the same piece of music is played by two or three instruments the music becomes richer, fuller. Put all the instruments together under the direction of a maestro and the music becomes a magnificent symphony of sound and vibration that envelops mind, body and spirit.
You are the maestro. You choose the instruments of love that will be played in the daily business of living. You are also the musician who, through conscious choice, knows the instrument and understands that it is only through practice that the full potential of the instrument can be achieved.
As you study the characteristics of each element keep in mind that, like the notes in music, the table is mathematical in nature with specific definitions assigned each key component. In contrast, the
Acceptance ● Compassion ● Gentleness ● Joy ● Honesty
● Humility ● Nobility ● Respectful
● Thoughtfulness ● Trustworthiness
