You may consider that the love within you and the Divine Love represented by God are the same. There is a difference. God’s Love is totally selfless, absolutely pure, eternal and flawless. Most people seek things in the world, including God, only for selfish reasons. Human love is self-centred and tainted. Such selfish love cannot merge with God’s love. It is only when it is free from egoism, pride, hatred and envy that God will abide in you. Without renunciation (tyaga), if one is immersed in worldly pleasures, and leads a mundane life, their devotion is only selfish, artificial and self-deceptive. It will not lead them to God. God cannot be got so easily. The heart has only a single seat. There is room in it for only one person. If you install worldly desires on that chair, how can you expect God to sit on it? God will take that seat only if you empty it of all other things
