What is Love? A Path In Discovering The Vibrational Energy of True Love

By John Kendrick

"What is love" was the most searched Internet phrase in 2012 and the second most searched phrase in the UK in 2013 suggesting that many people are simply confused about love; its existence and meaning. We can be told ‘love conquers all’, it can move mountains, make the world go around and many people settle for love within their relationships. Yet with such current understandings of love, the irony is that in a world of so much love there exists a vast amount of family breakdown, heartache, misery and much negativity. So it is undeniable then, that love’s credibility can certainly be brought into question.

But what of True Love? Its mere ‘existence’ simply implies that although many other kinds of love exist in the world, these kinds of love are false: True Love is the truest kind of love to ever exist. So until we come to know True Love and understand it within our own lives, only then can we give True Love the prominence and credence it so deserves.

‘What Is Love? A Path In Discovering the Vibrational Energy of True Love’ invites the reader to begin a journey of discovery that subjugates any notion of love and places a unique interpretation of True Love at the very heart and soul of human existence. Examining the real essence of True Love in the context of vibrational energy ensures we can gain a complete understanding of True Love within society, the many interactions we have with other people and within the close relationships we have. Moreover, through these wonderful and provocative pages we can be elevated into a position where we can discover the most elusive quality many are so desperate to find, True Love.

FOREWORD

Ever since I experienced a heartfelt crisis in my life many years ago, I began a journey. This long, arduous journey paved the way for me to spend many solitary moments deep in contemplation; questioning the very essence of 'love' and why my life was filled with much negativity, anguish and pain. Afterall, prior to this crisis I was truly happy.

So, the more I pondered over the negative and at times, even sorrowful state of my life, instead of becoming insular, I carefully observed the world around me and realised I was not alone; the majority of people I met along the way endured many, if not more of the same negative and despairing feelings I had come to know. It appeared confusing that in our world of so much love and happiness where, ‘love conquers all’, it can 'move mountains', 'make the world go around' and many people settle for love within their relationships, that many people were, essentially unhappy. How can there be so much love when there is so much sorrow and why were people truly unhappy? It just did not make sense to me.

In time, I also discovered that widespread negativity was complemented by a vast sense of falsehood and deceit that essentially, concealed an important, yet very simple truth. This truth was a truth I only learned after I had experienced the only magic and wonderment that life can ever offer.

'we only come to know how hard life is when we realise how simple it could have been'

Nevertheless, from acknowledging such a truth I wondered whether much, if not all the negativity within people’s lives, including my own could have been prevented and, whether it was possible to be truly free from it. It was at this point that my journey really got under way.

Although answers soon began to emerge, at that time insufficient life experiences and a lack of wisdom hindered my goal of reaching any firm conclusions and finding a resolution.

My search was also made more difficult as nobody ever spoke of their personal experiences, innermost thoughts and feelings as frivolous chatter concerning work, money, television and holidays etc., took precedence. It seemed the language of emotions and feelings was non-existent. Hardly surprising why there was no one to ask. Moreover, I found much explicit true knowledge of life is fragmented, hidden and encrypted deep within orthodox practices and even the vast sense of falsehood and deceit filled me with much cynicism and disillusionment that created, what seemed to be, an impenetrable barrier, preventing any tangible answers seeping through.

However in time, through my own personal experiences and contrary to common belief' I finally discovered that it is possible to avoid and even unlock the shackles of negativity, anguish and pain, and for me, it certainly became the case that what had caused all my pain and anguish in the first place, was the very thing that could set me free.

Essentially what I discovered and had come to know was that True Love is the only prize or goal in life ever worth considering, more valuable than any other love and any of the alluring riches our material life can offer; the peak of all experiences that can turn discontentment into true contentment, disappointment into true satisfaction and unhappiness into true happiness and this, gave me greater hope to continue my journey.

So what is True Love? Why do we endure much anguish, mental torment and pain without it whilst conversely, having True Love can extinguish the flames of pain and suffering a broken heart brings? If we have experienced much trauma and tragedy in our own lives, how can we make True Love a reality especially when much truth of True Love remains hidden?

After experiencing many puzzling twists and turns throughout my journey and having picked up useful fragments of information from varied sources along the way, I have developed a clearer, more uncomplicated approach that has enabled me to answer such questions and many more like them. It is now, at journeys end that I can pass on what I regard to be, this true knowledge of True Love.

For me, having the understanding of True Love being bound within the vibrational energy that lies all around us ensures it is possible that many of us can discover or even re-discover True Love and in so doing, avoid or escape the throes of misery from a broken heart; the negativity of Despair.

I have enjoyed writing this book and I hope you will enjoy reading it too. The contents, I feel, provide an easy to read, alternative and invaluable insight into life, one that hopefully, can be applied to your own lives. After reading this book, I sincerely wish that it will help you in your own quest, to discover or even re-discover the very thing many people are so desperate to find, True Love.

INTRODUCTION

"Search for the truth yourself and the truth shall always be yours" Anon

The phrase ‘True Love’ is widely known; we can read about it in numerous books and poems, see it portrayed within certain movies and listen to lyrics of True Love within the many songs we hear. We can also gain an insight into what True Love is by even browsing through numerous pages on the Internet. Moreover, we become more familiar with True Love when we talk to people and hear phrases like ‘love at first sight’, which refers to a chance meeting where we instantly know the person we meet is the ‘one’ for us. The phrase ‘there’s someone for everyone’ further impresses upon us the possibility of only one specific person or type of person; a True Love, who should accompany us through life’s journey. Furthermore, the popular term Soulmate again refers to a True Love, but this time gives the impression that a person’s soul is in some way connected to ours and a deep, mutual resonance and understanding exists within the bond.

Nowadays, Internet dating sites flourish and allow single people to search, meet and date other single people. Yet within public profiles, it is striking that many people adopt terms and phrases that directly point to the existence of a True Love. For example, once registered, members create profiles on which to tell the world the sort of person they are looking for. If we viewed these, especially the female profiles we would see phrases and words like 'Where are you my prince?? Knight in shining armour wanted' or, 'Have a good heart and would love to meet the right guy unconditionally and those are the qualities I'm looking for in my Soulmate :-)'.

Additionally, if we really put our minds to it, we can even visualize what it is like to be truly in love. Let's close our eyes and imagine walking along a warm sandy beach holding hands as a sunset draws upon the close of a romantic day or, glancing at the sparkle in our partner's eyes that reflects an inner flame of all that is true and eternal unity. Maybe we could imagine laughter and joy emanating from the heart during a period of uncomplicated conversation.

Representations such as these, can be affirmed by selective, momentary observations of other people.

Have we ever sensed the wholeness, unity, warmth and comfort when we see a couple embrace and kiss, as they part to go to work? We might have seen an elderly couple walk along the street hand in hand and sensed the enduring bond that has tied them together over a lifetime; hearts filled with the same feelings of gladness they experienced when they first met, all those years ago. Maybe we have seen a young couple in a newly formed relationship travelling on a bus and sensed the tenderness, calmness and intimacy of their exuberant, youthful manner.

Perhaps we can even remember the precious moments we have experienced within our own lives.

One day, whilst opening the door to a shop, we may have encountered a surprisingly beautiful person; an angel who just happened to be leaving. As soon as our eyes were attracted to this personification of heaven, our hearts became filled with excitement and our minds enthralled by their enlightening wonderment. We might have sensed they too, were drawn to us like a magnet, as we caught a glimpse of them looking at us with a warm, yearning glow that emitted a hidden desire to be with us. During this brief encounter we might have initiated some kind of contact, perhaps through smiling or a spontaneous greeting. Or maybe, to our astonishment, we just couldn’t grasp the importance of what life was offering to us at the time and the opportunity, slipped effortlessly through our fingers, leaving us to continue our journey into the shop, never to see that person ever again.

Now many of us might regard the whole idea of True Love to be entirely fictional; a romantic idiom that only exists in literature and plays, myths and conjecture. However, we all have the potential to be romantic and to love in its truest sense. So, experiences of insightful, momentary events such as these as well as the many references of True Love we come to know in words and phrases, merely serve to remind us that something very real indeed exists; something that, not only points to the very existence of a special person in our lives, but also something that indicates the existence of an enduring ‘quality of permanence’, one that emboldens all that is true; true happiness, true contentment and true joy. This something is True Love.

Nonetheless, as we are all human beings and many of us can experience the same fundamental experiences other people experience, it would seem quite plausible to accept that the true love other people have in their lives; this quality of permanence, is something we all have the potential to experience. In other words, the True Love we can witness in others is simply, there for us all.

Yet when we look at the world we live in and look at the people around us, there is a disturbing reality that many people have been abandoned by True Love and their lives subsequently tarnished with upset, heartache and much despair. We can sense this simply from the negativity in the world and by observing people’s worn, weathered faces and demeanours where many, try to conceal the disappointment and discontentment of living a life without True Love.

So why is True Love or a person we can call a True Love there for us all, when clearly, True Love is not apparent within many people’s lives?

Perhaps opportunities of True Love simply pass us by because of a lack of insight, wisdom and knowledge, so when opportunities do actually arise, we fail to respond successfully which leaves us learning when it is just too late. Maybe, the many insightful experiences of True Love that life presents to us may not be opportunities at all but simple reminders of how we should be living our lives and who we should be living them with. Or, does the turmoil within our own relationships leave us very much confused and doubtful over the very existence of True Love? If our experiences have been extremely traumatic and have left us emotionally scarred, do we reach a point whereby a True Love, Soulmate, the ‘one’ person or any other kind of love for that matter, becomes non-existent?

Yet, whatever the reason for this apparent absence of True Love within many people's lives, if we live our lives without it any relationship we do form with other people can never be of the same quality and standing. As a consequence of this, it is quite unsurprising that many of us build lives upon love.

Love is universally accepted by many people and the concept of love within the English language refers to a variety of different feelings, states and attitudes, ranging from pleasure to interpersonal attraction. Love also refers to the passionate desires and intimacy of romantic love; to sexual love or lust, to the emotional closeness of familial love or even to the platonic love that defines friendship. It seems love can also be extended and connected to many other things, so it is no wonder why people can
