Abstract
Which is our fundamental essence? Are we biological machines or spiritual eternal beings? In this essay, I attempt to demonstrate that our essence is nothing else than conscious eternal, infinite, nonjudgmental, unconditional love. This eternal, infinite, non-judgmental unconditional love expresses itself as a never-ending creative force that gives rise to infinite expressions with different potentialities to achieve self-consciousness, from photons to molecules, from stones to trees, from bacteria to invertebrates, and from vertebrates to humans.Conscious eternal, infinite, nonjudgmental, unconditional love is not a powerful emotion, but the creative energy of all that exist.
