Love Knows Itself

...for love to exist — and to know itself as pure love — its exact opposite has to exist as well. So we have the absolute opposite of love — everything that love is not — what is now called fear. In the moment fear existed, love could exist as a thing that could be experienced.

It is this duality between love and its opposite which humans refer to in their various mythologies as the birth of evil, the fall of Adam, the rebellion of Satan, and so forth.
