PART 4"Even when we do not suspect it, love is the supreme law of the universe. It is a mysterious law that governs and rules every existing thing, from the lifeless atom to the union as a couple of two persons. All our thoughts and actions go to it as to a divine centre of irresistible attraction." Love is what gives people the power to dream and follow their dreams. Love gives birth to the mysterious aspiration of self-knowledge. If you feel you no longer have this wonderful feeling of love towards a person, or something really important in your life, then it can only mean two things: either you were never able to love, or that you forgot to look inside of you, where this love is still present. Love knows that the things of the mind are flicker and are subject to change. Therefore, overwhelming, pure love turns even the most pitiful person into a winner. Love is...just like this. You just perceive it, in your moments of joy and happiness, through your loved one. However, love does not need that. Love does not rule over anything and does not want to be ruled. Above all, love offers something, and it requires nothing in return. Sit is divine simplicity in action and living. Love is an earthly reflexion of heavenly love, and therefore it does not have any boundaries or limits. If there is love, it is everywhere. And if there is love, it will exists from now on, for ever. Love is the ineffable, overwhelming, and divine feeling that makes us feel we grow in our consciousness that makes us feel we are one with the infinite. Love is mostly manifested through the sublime aspiration of becoming united with the "object" of our love, with the person we love dearly and deeply. The emergence, persistence, and development of this feeling in the sphere of each individual is intimately connected to the formation and crystallization of one’s personality. 
The yogis have always considered the feeling of love as extraordinarily important and often characterized it as an essential value-criterion of the degree of a human being’s spiritual state of elevation.It is a measure of the fact that in the most intimately individual part of a person, he or she who loves has the possibility of acquiring the qualities of love itself, that is infinity and divinity. Consequently, true, genuine love is a very simple modality of overcoming or transcending one’s ego. "The most beautiful love one can experience is the love of God. He is our eternal lover and our souls are his beloveds, and when the soul meets the greatest lover in the whole universe, then the divine love begins." (Paramahansa Yogananda) "Oh, Lord, when I dwell in the house of my mortal consciousness, I think I love my parents and friends; I imagine I love my birds, animals, and possessions. Now, after I entered the temple of omniscience, I know you are all I love, manifested in the shapes of my parents, friends and all creatures and things. By loving you, my heart knew how to love everyone. Being loyal to you, I am loyal to all of them. And I love everything." (Paramahansa Yogananda) For a better understanding of the Anahata chakra, we introduce to you the explanations of the following terms: Harmony - concordance, accord, matching the component elements of a whole. Philosophical category that expresses the adherence of the parts, the coherence of the interior and exterior, the unity of the form and content, the unity of the contraries. Harmony is often considered as foundation, attribute, or effect of the beauty. Transfiguration - procedure of inner alchemy that makes possible the resonance with subtle divine energies from the macrocosm. Through transfiguration, the elements of the exterior reality, distilled by the noble vision, imagination, and power of expression of the person capable of transfiguring are transformed into a new, elevated, spiritual reality, source of a form of ecstasy. Through the example of artistic expression, the transfiguration represents the proof of the active and creative role of consciousness. The sublime artistic expression, capable of recreating the reality with new, and deeper valences brought the art the name of magic mirror of reality. Transfiguration plays an important part in sexual continence and in the art of divine lovemaking. 
Empathy - resonance that is awakened and amplified through the yogic practice, allowing a superior psychic and affective communication with other people, or sometimes with beings from the unseen worlds.Generally speaking, we all know that a mother knows intuitively her baby’s needs and feelings. This apparently mysterious connection such as between the mother and her child is naturally related to the fact that initially the child is one with the mother. Empathy is an intuitive modality of knowing the others, because it ensures a form of affective communication and immediate, sentimental transposition, making possible the identification with other persons, in various situations of life. Through certain psychological techniques and best through certain yoga techniques, a person can normalize and improve his or her experiences and perceptions. A powerful, beneficial, positive emotional experience "charges" the person in question with positive energy, stimulates the mind, and euphorically "colours" the soul. The study in the field of psychosomatic confirms the fact that disturbing, negative emotions cause various heart, liver, and/or brain diseases, and in the same time they deeply affect the consciousness of the physical body.
