Love Is Situational – In Today’s Time

 Love Is Situational – In Today’s Time

Is it really, that love has become situational? A question that pierces the soul. A feeling once believed to be unconditional, timeless, and free from logic now seems tangled in circumstances, conditions, and convenience. The question is not just "how did we get here"—but "how did we let this happen?"

In the past, love was treasured. It was enduring, selfless, and patient. People trusted in healing rather than ending, stayed through storms, and held hands during fights. Love comes and goes more quickly these days. It waits for favourable circumstances, advantageous times, and individual gains. Love falters if one's career is uncertain, one's job is lost, or one's mental health is troubled. It pulls away. It reviews the terms and conditions on its own.

We have replaced connection with compatibility checklists. We seek validation instead of understanding.

How come? We have replaced connection with compatibility checklists. We seek validation instead of understanding. We fall for appearances but flee from emotional depth. Technology, dating apps, and social media have turned love into a swipe, a like, a temporary thrill. The depth has been sacrificed at the altar of convenience.

How did this happen? Because somewhere along the way, we become terrified of depth. Vulnerability became a threat rather than a virtue. We were so focused on self-love that we forgot that true love frequently entails giving, sacrificing, and adapting. The'me-first' generation has glorified barriers to the point where bridges are no longer being formed. Relationships now have expiry dates, which are determined by fear and conditions rather than fate.

We say “I love you,” but do we mean it beyond good times? When struggles arrive—be it financial, emotional, or physical—love becomes silent. Commitments once spoken with grandeur are now ghosted with indifference. People no longer leave when love dies; they leave when comfort dies.

We say “I love you,” but do we mean it beyond good times? When struggles arrive—be it financial, emotional, or physical—love becomes silent.

How have we stooped so low? Love is now a deal, not a devotion. “What do I get out of this?” has replaced “What can I give to this?” Relationships are ending not due to lack of love, but due to lack of willingness to fight for it. We've become emotionally lazy, expecting love to be easy, effortless, and perfect.

But all hope is not lost.

True love still exists—rare, quiet, and often away from the spotlight. It shows up in silent sacrifices, in late-night check-ins, in forgiving after a fight, and in choosing each other again and again despite the chaos. The world may be shifting, but we can still choose differently. We can choose to love not because it is easy, but because it is worth it.

So let’s not normalize situational love. Let us rise again to the kind of love that holds space, that bends but doesn’t break, that stays—not for the situation, but for the soul.

From Shadows to Bloom

 
This side-by-side is not just art, it speaks of hope and time, That even through the darkest days, your colors will still climb.

 “From Shadows to Bloom”

In a world of grayscale sighs, where silence softly weeps,
A bloom stood still in quiet grace, where color gently sleeps.
Its petals pale in whispered tones, a dream not yet unfurled,
As if it waited for the sun to bring it back to world.

Then came a breath, a morning light, and color kissed the leaves,
From ghostly grey to violet bright — a miracle that breathes.
The same flower, yet so alive, once bathed in moon’s despair,
Now dances bold with hues of joy, in fragrant summer air.

This side-by-side is not just art, it speaks of hope and time,
That even through the darkest days, your colors will still climb.
For every bloom that's lost in black, a purple waits to shine,
A gentle nudge from nature’s brush: “Your season will be fine.”

Karma Theory

 

Karma Theory: What You Give, That You Get

Introduction

The ancient law of karma, deeply rooted in Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism, is a fundamental spiritual concept that transcends religion and philosophy. It operates on a simple yet profound premise: what you give is what you get. Karma, a Sanskrit word meaning “action” or “deed,” implies that every thought, word, or act has consequences. This cosmic principle is not about punishment or reward in the conventional sense but about balance, justice, and natural order.

In the modern world, where actions often seem disconnected from consequences, karma reminds us that every choice ripples out into the universe and eventually returns to us. Whether it's kindness, cruelty, honesty, or deceit—our energy returns, in kind, in due time.


The Law of Cause and Effect

At the heart of karma is the law of cause and effect. Every action (cause) generates a corresponding reaction (effect). This is not merely about outward actions but includes intentions and thoughts. A person who consistently acts with compassion and generosity sets in motion a chain of events that brings similar experiences into their life. Conversely, acts rooted in selfishness, hatred, or dishonesty often lead to pain, conflict, or loss.

The law does not operate with immediate results. Karma is subtle and patient. Sometimes its effects are visible instantly; other times, they unfold across months, years, or even lifetimes. The key is that the universe keeps perfect records. Nothing is ever truly lost or forgotten.

Types of Karma

In Eastern philosophy, karma is not a monolithic concept. It is often divided into three main types:

  1. Sanchita Karma – the accumulated karma of past lives.
  2. Prarabdha Karma – the portion of karma from the past that is ripe and is being experienced in this lifetime.
  3. Kriyamana Karma – the karma we are creating in this moment through our current thoughts and actions.

These distinctions show that karma is both cumulative and immediate. While we cannot change the past, we can influence the present and the future through conscious choices. This empowers us to take responsibility for our lives.

What You Give: Energy in Action

The principle of “what you give, that you get” aligns karma with the energetic flow of the universe. Giving does not mean just physical offerings—it includes the energy behind our actions: love, support, truth, encouragement, or even negativity, manipulation, or judgment.

If we give kindness, we often receive kindness—maybe not from the same person, but from another source or at another time. The same holds true for negative actions. It is like planting seeds: what you sow is what you eventually reap.

Imagine your actions as echoes. When you shout into a canyon, the sound comes back to you. Karma works similarly. Whether you send out compassion or cruelty, it returns to its source—you.

Real-Life Applications

In daily life, karma serves as a moral compass. Consider a workplace: if a manager treats their employees with respect and fairness, they are likely to receive loyalty and productivity in return. In relationships, a person who loves unconditionally often experiences deeper connection and trust. On the other hand, betrayal or deceit often returns as mistrust or loneliness.

Even in small acts—like helping a stranger, being patient in traffic, or choosing to speak the truth when it’s hard—we shape the kind of energy that surrounds us. These small acts accumulate, creating a karmic bank balance that influences our future.

Karma and Free Will

A common misconception is that karma is fatalistic—that people are doomed by their past actions. But karma is not destiny. While it may influence our circumstances, it does not bind us helplessly. Free will plays a crucial role.

We are not just passive recipients of karma. We are active participants in shaping it. At any moment, we can choose a different path. If past actions brought suffering, we can learn from them and create better karma going forward. Spiritual practices like meditation, self-reflection, prayer, and forgiveness can also help cleanse negative karmic patterns.

Breaking the Karmic Cycle

Karma is also a cycle—a wheel of action and reaction. Spiritual evolution comes from recognizing this cycle and rising above it. When we act with true selflessness, without expectation of reward, we begin to transcend the karmic loop. This is known in the Bhagavad Gita as nishkama karma—action without attachment to outcomes.

Forgiveness is another powerful tool. Holding onto anger or revenge creates more negative karma. Letting go and choosing compassion helps release us from the karmic grip.

Karma in Spiritual Teachings

In Hinduism, karma is linked to dharma (righteous duty). Performing one’s duties without selfish desires purifies the soul. In Buddhism, karma is one of the driving forces of samsara—the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth. The goal is to reach Nirvana, where karma no longer binds the soul. In Jainism, karma is seen as subtle matter that attaches to the soul, and liberation comes through non-violence and self-discipline.

Even in Western philosophies and spiritual teachings, similar concepts exist. The Bible says, “As you sow, so shall you reap.” The law of attraction in modern spirituality echoes the same principle: the energy you emit is the energy you receive.

 

Modern Relevance

In an age of rapid change and moral ambiguity, the theory of karma remains a grounding force. It teaches personal accountability in a world where blame-shifting is common. It offers hope—because if our current situation is shaped by our past actions, we can shape our future by today’s choices.

Karma also encourages empathy. When we recognize that others are also navigating their karmic journeys, we become less judgmental and more compassionate.

Conclusion

The theory of karma, encapsulated in the phrase “what you give, that you get,” is a timeless truth. It is not a tool for fear or control but a guide for conscious living. Every act, every word, and every thought is an offering to the universe—and the universe responds in kind.

By giving love, truth, integrity, patience, and kindness, we shape not only our destiny but the collective energy of the world. In this way, karma becomes a path not just of justice, but of growth, healing, and harmony.

Let us then walk this path with awareness—planting seeds of goodness—knowing that the harvest will return to us in time, in form, and in spirit.

Universe Always Listens


Understanding Energy Dynamics: A Deeper Look into Human Connections

Universe always listens

“There are few things to understand here…”—this simple phrase opens a gateway to a profound understanding of how we interact with others and how our own energy patterns align with those around us. Energy is not just a spiritual concept; it is a real and tangible force that drives interactions, attracts people into our lives, and sometimes, unexpectedly, draws them back.

Energy Alignment: The Foundation of Every Interaction

At any given point, we are emitting a certain frequency—our thoughts, emotions, and vibrations shape this frequency. Similarly, others operate on their own energetic wavelength. When someone enters your life, especially during a specific phase, it's essential to ask: What is their energy at that moment? More importantly, how does it align with yours?

This alignment may not be permanent—it shifts with time, circumstances, and internal growth. Sometimes, a person who felt deeply connected to you once may no longer resonate the same way, and that's okay. It's not about permanence, but presence—how your energies are meeting and dancing together in this moment.


Why Do People Come Back?

People returning into your life is not just a coincidence. There is always a learning hidden within these cycles. Ask yourself: Why is this person resurfacing now? Is there an emotional loop you haven't closed? A lesson left incomplete?

The universe operates in patterns and synchronicities. If someone returns, it could be because your energies are again intersecting in a way that needs acknowledgment. Sometimes, it is for healing. Sometimes, for closure. Sometimes, to test if you've truly evolved. What matters is what your energy is inviting at that point.

Timing is Everything

Universe always listens

Pay attention to the timing when someone re-enters your life. Is it during a festival? A crisis? A birthday? A transition period?

Certain timings are spiritually potent. They heighten emotions and open channels of vulnerability. People often appear when you're at your energetic extremes—either in deep joy or deep pain. This is not random. It's a mirror being held up by the universe asking: Are you ready to see this clearly now?

Every interaction during these windows has a message. Recognizing it requires awareness and an honest look at your emotional state.

Are They Triggered by Events?

Some people seem to pop up only during significant events—whether they are major life milestones or even smaller moments that hold emotional value for you. It may not be deliberate, but it’s telling.

Is this person reacting to your visibility, your vulnerability, or your silence? Is their reappearance an energetic response to something unspoken between you? People are subconsciously drawn to our energetic shifts. If they return when something in your life changes, it may be because that shift echoes within them too.


Self-Energy Check: Where Are You?

The most crucial aspect of this whole reflection is you. What is your energy when these encounters or re-encounters occur?

We often focus on others—why they came, why they left, why they return. But the true insight lies in understanding what version of you existed during those times.

Were you in need? Were you empowered? Were you healing? Were you seeking validation?

When we look back at emotional events, we see that our energy—whether calm or chaotic—played a huge role in what or whom we attracted. Sometimes, we unintentionally invite low-frequency energies because we’re feeling depleted or unsure. Other times, we attract powerful, inspiring people because we’re glowing with self-alignment.

Attraction and Energy: It’s Not Always About Them

Many times, the people who appear are not coming for you—they’re responding to something in your field. If you're feeling lost, you may draw in rescuers or manipulators. If you’re radiating clarity, you’ll attract equals or those ready to evolve.

The key is to become aware of your energy at the moment someone enters your space. Take a pause and ask:

  • What was I feeling before this person reached out?
  • What thoughts or dreams have I been having?
  • Am I seeking something externally that I should be giving myself?

Energies & Dreams: The Invisible Bridge

Our dreams, too, are a mirror of our energetic state. They reflect the subconscious entanglements and shifts occurring beneath the surface. Often, we dream of people who we haven’t spoken to in years, only to receive a message from them the next day. That’s not magic—it’s energy in motion.

Energy transcends distance, time, and logic. Our dream space is a sacred realm where our deepest energies play out without masks or resistance. So when someone shows up in your dream, consider what part of your energy they are reflecting. Are they a symbol of healing, warning, or longing?

Final Thoughts: Live with Energy Awareness

The deeper learning in all of this is to cultivate energy awareness. Notice what you’re radiating. Observe what you're attracting. Every person, every interaction is a lesson in energy exchange.

When you become conscious of your frequency, you stop blaming others for leaving or returning. You begin to see the divine choreography of connection. It’s not about controlling the flow—it’s about understanding it.

Ask yourself daily: What is my energy saying today? Because your energy speaks louder than your words, and the universe always listens.
