NOTE

Embrace Universal Love Through Beauty, Neighbor, and Ritual

Recognizing an underlying implicit love of God enables a shift from the particular to the universal. Practicing love can be approached in three ways: appreciating the world's beauty, caring for others, and valuing religious ceremonies. Many have experienced transcendent moments related to these themes, highlighting a shared human experience that transcends specific philosophical teachings. This commonality suggests a collective access to profound insights, akin to those found in contemplative practices or even psychedelics. Ultimately, love can be discovered in nature's beauty or in interpersonal connections, emphasizing the universality of these encounters.
