Love is on the one hand our tendency towards God – the tendency of the accident towards the Substance – and on the other hand our consciousness of “myself” in the “other,” and of the “other” in ourselves; it is also the sense of beauty, above us and around us and in our own soul. (GTUFS: ChristIslam, The Question of Evangelicalism)
Love, to the extent that it transcends itself in the direction of its supernatural source, is the LOVE of man for God and of God for man, and finally it is Beatitude without origin and without end. (GTUFS: TransfMan, Reflections on Ideological Sentimentalism)
Love is the tendency towards Union: this tendency can be a movement, either towards the Immutable, the Absolute, or towards the Limitless, the Infinite. (GTUFS: EyeHeart, Diverse Aspects of Initiatory Alchemy)
If by the word ‘LOVE’ the Torah and the Gospel express above all the idea of ‘union’, or of ‘will for union’, they make it clear, by the epithets that follow, that this comprises differing modes, in conformity with the diversity of man’s nature; it would be necessary then to say, not, LOVE alone draws towards God, but rather, what draws towards God is alone LOVE.

Love (pure): Pure LOVE is not of this world of oppositions; it is by origin celestial and its end is God; it lives, as it were in itself, by its own light and in the ray of God-Love. (GTUFS: GnosisDW, The Christian Tradition, Some Thoughts on its Nature)
