This frequency is still law of flesh complying on its own chastisement and its natural rejuvenative ability as nature complies on its own natural law. Please don’t be deceived, even if you are surrounded with ocean of love only God has pure living water that can quench the thirst of our soul.

Welcome to Sanatan Dharma (Hinduism) sir. Sanatan Dharma believes entire universe is born from same source Whom we Hindus call AUM(OM). Hence we believe that Parmatma (God) is in every thing because all have born from same source and that same source is present within all as vital life force, hence all are equal that's why our Sanatan Dharma scriptures says "Vasudhaiv Kutumbakam" means not just 3-4 but whole world is our family. Love for all hatred for none. We believe within every living being there is divine God that's why we do namaste to all means I bow down to the divine in you. That's why you will find majority of Sanatan Dharmi Hindus vegetarian also as we see Parmatma (God) even within animals. Our Sanatan Dharma (Hinduism) is oldest civilization on planet Earth created by Parmatma. It all about spirituality and human salvation from cycle of birth and death. Welcome to Sanatan family. 😊
