if you want others to feel love, you will have to implicate yourself with them personally, emotionally, intimately; you will have to use your time, your energy, and your life to MAKE LOVE with them personally.
Otherwise you are only preaching wishful thinking.

There are many different types of love. Passionate as in Eros and endearing friendship is in Aggape.
In various spiritual practices the master loves the student with all of one's heart. This is the love that flows through the heart from heavenly realms.
Those who have visions of saints, masters, christ, buddha, Our Lady, etc. all experience love as all encompassing and all embracing. Those who choose a spiritual path have an opportunity to transcend Eros and transmute it into Aggape. Think of a stick... Eros on one end and Aggape on the other. One is always on the stick yet can change their location with intention and great heart. Be not harsh with those who have had different experiences then yourself. Instead be open to the difference and allow yourself the possibility of experiencing something new.
