The Kabbalah on Unconditional Love...
"Loving our neighbors-or our enemies, for that matter-has nothing at all to do with morals or ethics. Rather, Kabbalah teaches that love is a formidable weapon in furthering our own cause in life, which is simply to gain true joy and fulfillment. In other words, we benefit. Love is a weapon of Light, and it has the power to eradicate all forms of darkness. That is the key. When we offer love even to our enemies, we destroy their darkness and hatred - which is the reason they became our enemies in the first place! What's more, we cast out the darkness inside ourselves. What's left are two souls who now recognize the spark of divinity they both share. This Name also awakens love for our spouse, friends, family, and self. After all, we can share only what we possess. Thus, we cannot love our neighbor or our spouse if we don't possess a love for our own self. Use this Name to dissolve animosity and bitterness that might arise after an argument with loved ones." Yehuda Berg - Excerpt from his upcoming book The 72 Names of God
