Hi folks,
This might seem like a dumb question, but please bear with me! 
While I know that PUL = Pure Unconditional Love,
just what is it in nature, and most importantly, how does it feel for those of us that haven't experienced it?
And how do you know when you get it and what does it feel like?

Best wishes,

Dave. (still waiting for a PUL  )

I think that's a really important question David.I think the key word is unconditional ! We live in a world where love seems so contingent i.e.  dependent on doing 'nice' things for the other in order to get it. One example of very contingent love could be the adulation enjoyed by a star striker from his team's fans which turns to ridicule when the goals dry up... On the other end of the scale we have the love of a mother for her wayward son who despite his poor decisions still loves him come what may. St Augustine may have put it as loving the sinner not the sin.

At a deep level there seems to be an understanding involved that all is ok with the world - despite appearances to the contrary ! i.e the process is a good (and necessary) one. I feel at times I experience tantalising glimpses of this level of love, but I imagine evolved beings/masters experience this as a routine state of affairs ! Work in progress ...

Hi Detheridge and all,

In addition to the previous fine descriptions and comments,
PUL has a sense of a magnetic flow, both going out in the expansive mode that Recoverer spoke of and, simultaneously, of returning.

It feels like you've removed all barriers so that the essence of who you are isn't hampered, or held back. It feels like you are now again a part of total creation instead of a single personality.

It seems like it lessens gravity, even after you've stopped generating it for a retrievee or in meditation, etc. It will give you a sense that you are abit physically lighter than you were.

To help it get started I used the musical note C one octave above middle. (Find a note that truly resonates for you; others mentionned an A etc) And humm along from your chest so your heart is encouraged to find that PUL vibration. 
And think kind thoughts.

Hi Dave,

Apologies for the delayed response, I have been trying to think of the best way of addressing some of your very good questions.

It is my understanding that our 'true nature' is that of energy and consciousness.

The essence of that energy and consciousness is PUL.

So, in answer to your first question 'if everything is a receiver/broadcaster of PUL, does that mean I already have it', ...you are it! You are an aspect of PUL in finite form experiencing a pseudo-finite existence.

Within this reality we take on the 'role' of human existence and with that comes a certain degree of 'conditioning' or pre-programming that has a massive affect on our belief systems as we progress through our human experience. This tends (and needs to be so as I understand it) to mask our 'true nature'. The challenge of Spiritual evolution within the human form is to 'awaken to understand and live according to our true nature'.

So... what does all this mean and how does it relate to PUL?

My Higher/Greater Self has also provided me with the following information...

What are the aspects of PUL? (i.e. the behaviours you can expect from an excellent transmitter)
They are...
- Forgiving, Considerate, Kind, Compassionate, Understanding, Peaceful, Wise, Grateful, Patient, Joyful and Helpful

To summarise (from my understanding) to become an excellent transmitter of PUL you need to behave in a manner that reflects your 'true nature'.

Hope this helps 

Kind regards,
Tebaron

Dave, you asked how to consciously jump-start PUL.

These thoughts came to me in response.  Wanting to consciously jump-start PUL is a good start.  Betson's "think kind thoughts" is spot on.  Loving the people you love, without worrying about whether it's conditional or unconditional, feeling that connection and attraction, and that desire for them to be happy.  Wanting your actions and energies to help them be well, happy, and have more and more love in their lives.

Conflicting issues will come up, but you can remember more and more often to just relax into their happiness and allow it  to be however they want it to be.  You could remind yourself that you are not the source of any obstacle to their true happiness.

If you have one or a few people who are the main focus of your loving attention, one of their many gifts to you is intensive lessons in how to love, and you can start extending it to others, even though your relationships with these others will be different.  Who should not have love?  There is not a person (etc.) who should be without it.  Pleasant people become more pleasant, and odious people become less odious (or more pleasant).  You can start to wish love, happiness and well-being to the various people you encounter, or see in the distance, or however they enter your life.  Gradually you'll probably feel these good wishes deeper in the heart of you, because they really should have these good things.

The "Isha facets" are kind of nice.  You might practice with those, like the first one, "Praise love for this moment in its perfection," with your attention deep in your heart.  Pause a little bit and allow it to echo, and say it to yourself again (and again).  After it's yours, you can say it and just offer or send the feeling to anyone, and you are transmitting love.  Since there is no reason for you to restrict what they do with this love in any way, it is unconditional love.

There are a lot of different particular ways or forms to make this goal part of your life.  Obviously these are just some illustrative thoughts.  Hope they help.

All the best,

James Ward

I very much 2nd the above! 

  I would just add that sometimes it's important to consciously ask for help from Guidance levels.   Set an affirmation of something like, "I deeply desire to fully know, experience, and perceive PUL."  "I sincerely ask for and deeply desire the assistance, wisdom, & guidance of the most PUL attuned Guidance energies and consciousness or those most spiritually beneficial for me and the Whole to attune to at this time." 

    In this PUL process, it is both a conscious, will oriented trying (creating a emotional and mental habit basically), and also opening up and observing.  It needs a balance and since most individuals are imbalanced between the Yin and Yang within, some may need a different proportion and emphasis than another of the above balance.  Very generally speaking, more men tend to need to focus a bit more on the opening up/observing/feeling part, and more women tend to need to focus more on the will and reasoning out aspect.

  It's also important to realize the importance of universalizing these feelings and expressions.  But like James said, for many sometimes one just has to start with those one already likes and/or loves.

A good way to start with the more universal part is to practice a meditation wherein you think of someone you have had difficulties with or tend to dislike and believe, know that this person is a part of Source and you are part of each other, but this person still has their own unique, individual path and developement (hence, there may be things about them that you don't fully understand and know about). 

  Feel positivity towards them and try to tune in and see below the hurtful words and actions to what's really beneath and why they have felt or acted this way.  This helps to develop compassion and insight into others. 

Accept those parts of them and those parts of you that responded negatively in turn, and then let it go and then focus on the general feeling of love for awhile and then bring them into that as part of it.

  Sometimes one may need to go back to the more general feeling and remembering of love, say in relation to a loved one or what not.  But like anything, the more we practice these things, the better we get.

   Life experiences and challenges also generally play an important role.
