The two words in Chinese and Japanese Kanji characters for Love 愛 and God 神, Ai and Shin are in appearance completely not identical in form.
A master in Chinese calligraphy wrote the two characters using a special method of writing, and it can be seen [photo below] that the Ai 愛 character when turned side way, it becomes Shin, God 神.

The word God is Love not Hate. Make no mistake about it whatever your belief or no belief.
Not many Japanese and Chinese know this in that common word of theirs.

God is Love, not Hate.
Those who have hate in their heart and soul, the being of a human being cannot be in tune with God, and cannot be in tune with God’s Love.
Love and Hate do not mix well, it is like trying to mix water with oil. Both do not gel. It is far apart, and as far apart as Heaven and Earth, as far apart as Heaven and Hell.
.
Great Love and Small Love, the difference is wide, as wide as the Universe. Hate is deep or shallow. Entrenched hatred is as deep as the ocean, dark, deep and cold.
Please do not harbour hate. Hate in one’s heart will make you weak. Will not make you strong. It is a heavy load on one’s shoulder. Let go hate. Lighten the load on self. One will breathe well. Sleep well. Eat well. Be well.

Yes, many pray at holy places…
Yes, prayers never enough. An end to hollow and ineffective prayers. Empty prayers. Why is that so?
Humans can fool one another easily with prayer. Insincerity in prayers, fakes in offering prayers.
.

The power of words is amazing.
Who created words for humans to use?
Do humans know what is Great Love and small love?
Do humans know all the kinds of love, and the many levels in love, whether it is love for fellow humans, or love for nature, etc?
Ponder this very deeply and in awe.

Character for Love 愛 Ai in Japanese has two sounds:
When humans pray to God…the Kanji character God 神 has Ai 愛in it:
with love 愛 [not hatred, no hatred element];
and praying with A, Heaven in it;
and praying with i, the Will in it;
and praying with Ai, the Heaven Will in it.
Four elements when we pray to God 神 :
Love 愛, Heaven, Will, and Heaven’s Will.

About tankoktim
It is a joy to share, and the more I share, the more it comes back in many ways and forms. Most of what I shared are not mine. I borrowed and shared it on my Blog.
If you like any particular post in my Blog, please feel free to share it far and wide with your loved ones, friends and contacts.
You may delete my name before sending it to them.
You may also use the articles to write on the same topic or extract and paste any part of it in your article.
My posts are available to all, young and old, students too.
If they wish, they can extract or plaglarize any of the points to write their articles or essays with it. Np.
==============
I share what I wrote worldwide with Facebook friends and contacts, not with Singaporeans only.
I share it by pasting the link method as it is easier and a shortcut rather than copy paste my comments in full text.
Some want me to stop posting. I shall stop giving comments and/or my link when others stop posting. When they stop, I stop.
When they continue to give comments, I shall continue to give my short-cut link, or a short cut-and-paste comment plus the link.
If I stop giving my link or comments, it will by default be letting others a free hand to give possibly a one-sided comment without anyone giving the other perspective on an issue.
If I stay quiet, it will be considered my failure not to give the opposite perspective.
Some want me to be silent, and to stop posting.
If I accept their demands, it will be a failure to my Facebook friends worldwide by staying silent.
I owe it to my Facebook friends and to the society to comment and give an opposite perspective on an issue.
