Origin of Love

by Ryuho Okawa

Love is what we all admire; it is our ideal. True love is revealed in the beauty and brightness of our souls. Love begins with the idea that we all originated from one God and that we are essentially one with others. Why do people love each other, or hate each other? In this book, spiritual teacher Ryuho Okawa answers this question by referring to the origin of love in relation to the secret of eternal life. When you understand the Truth about love, you will be awakened to the wonder of being given life, and you will be filled with love for those around you.
