Nowadays, egoistic desires have intensified so much that they are simply burning inside of us. The extent of our growing desire for delight was unseen during all previous years, and previous generations. Year after year we are becoming greater egoists, which was not the case during the last hundred or two hundred years, when humanity was not undergoing such changes. And if our desire for delight is increasing so rapidly, then it is not surprising that today people do not understand each other. Divorce is becoming a commonly accepted phenomenon of life. One can hardly understand how someone can live for 70 years without being divorced and married a few times.
The same applies in relation to oneself. Today, I do not understand the way I was yesterday, I become constantly confused. All of this is the result of a very rapid development of our desire for delight. We cannot halt it in order to examine whether or not we have similar properties, and accordingly, whether we can remain close to each other. This is why no matter how much we desire to achieve love in this world, we will not succeed.
Let’s feel better by saying that love does not exist in this world 🙂
