THE WORD LOVE has myriad meanings, including (but not limited to) the Greek concepts of Agape (unconditional love, divine love, compassion), Philia (brotherly/sisterly love, friendship), and Eros. It is Eros we mean when we speak of falling in love. What is Eros? It is desire - divine discontent - the urge to merge. It is the propelling force, the restlessness that pulls on us to create, to seek, to move, to express, to surrender, to become One with.
