There is only one love, the Divine Love, eternal, universal, equal for everyone and everything.

What is lasting, eternal, immortal and infinite, that indeed is worth having, worth conquering, worth possessing. It is divine Light, divine Love, divine Life―it is also Supreme Peace, Perfect Joy and All-Mastery upon earth with the Complete Manifestation as the crowning.

==What Happens when Divine Love is Not Present?==
 
 
If that falsification of lower nature forces are permitted, the higher Light and Power and Bliss withdraw, there is a fall back to a lower status; or else the realisation remains tied to an insecure half-way and mixture or is covered and even submerged by an inferior exaltation that is not the true Ananda…
 
<ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/08/15-august-1956#p1</ref> But this lower vital way is only a source of suffering, trouble, disappointment, disillusion and disunion. Even a slight element of it shakes the foundations of peace and replaces the movement towards Ananda by a fall towards sorrow, discontent and Nirananda.

How Can Divine Love Flourish?

To become conscious of the Divine Love, all other love must be abandoned. [2]

Love should be a flowering of joy and union and confidence and self-giving and Ananda. [3]

Once one has found divine Love, all other loves, which are nothing but disguises, can lose their deformities and become pure―then it is the Divine that one loves in everyone and everything. [4]

What are the Prerequisites for Manifestation of Divine Love?

Truth alone can give to the world the power of receiving and manifesting the Divine Love. [5]

It may be said that a complete act of divine love and worship has in it three parts that are the expressions of a single whole,―a practical worship of the Divine in the act, a symbol of worship in the form of the act expressing some vision and seeking or some relation with the Divine, an inner adoration and longing for oneness or feeling of oneness in the heart and soul and spirit. [6]

Common Barriers related to Development of Divine Love

Always they draw away towards pitfalls, pour into that higher intensity their diminishing elements, seek to capture the descending Power for themselves and their interests and degrade it into an aggrandised mental, vital or physical instrumentation for desire and ego… [7]

The one thing to be done is to change it, not to suppress its movement or destroy it. For without it no intensity is possible anywhere.
