The munis then attempted to answer the question amongst themselves, but were unable to give a precise answer.
So, Shreeji Mahãrãj replied, “Love can develop due to beauty, due to lust, due to greed, due to some selfish motives, or due to the other person’s qualities. Of these, love which stems from beauty lasts only until a person sees the disfigurement caused by leprosy in the other person’s body, or until the person develops leukoderma. After that, the love which once existed would dissolve. In the same way, love stemming from greed, lust, and selfishness also eventually dissolves. However, love developed due to the other person’s qualities, ultimately survives.”
Then, Somlã Khãchar asked Shreeji Mahãrãj, “Which qualities are these? Are they external ones, or internal ones?”
Shreeji Mahãrãj replied, “How is it possible to develop love due to external qualities? To be more precise, it is love stemming from the qualities of the person’s speech, thoughts, and deeds, which does not dissolve. Now, are you asking only about a bhaktabhaktaDevotee of Bhagvãn.
