The Importance of Love
Buddhists believe that our essential self is a single, infinite and indivisible hold or reality from which every one and everything derives its apparently independent existence. If we like someone it has nothing to do with whether we like them or not - love is something completely different. This recognition of our shared being in forms the way we relate to everyone. We extend this not just to people but to sentient beings, people and animals too.
