Jai Sri Ganesha,
The sense of intimacy is prerequisite in love, indeed an important factor to reach the truth of love that to love oneself above the worldly objects, love more than self to God to make it to the truth of being man in journey of life,
Conceive love in this world of Maya is inevitable but conceive an unalloyed love is an greatest achievement for man, being it invite the ultimate soul mate,
Indeed, man needs unalloyed love and God too loves it like anything, neither God nor his true loves go in to know the secret of beloved in personal, rather to try to cross the barrier of self to discard the identity clash to merge in blissful unification,
Intense love could be speculative may cross the horizon of extravaganza but silent truth with love in color with inherent self is sure path to recall God for sole cause of being man,
Jai Mahadev
