Initial spiritual aspirant develops instant comprehension of many kinds of obstacles in the path. During the period of the sadhana love-hate tries to slow down or defeat the aspirant by sudden attack on the inner most budding energy. Love-hate are the robbers, bandits and gangsters. There is no way the aspirant will progress upwards towards higher path till the love-hate are reduced to great extent. Love-hate disturbs the peace and creates friction and distress in life. It also distracts the mind making it inefficient and scattered. By the grace of God, this is mentioned clearly in the writings on love-hate to make the aspirant clearly aware of it. Love-hate is of many kinds and has many subtle differences. There is always difference in gross and subtle form of love-hate. The gross kind of love-hate causes obstacles; and this also is explained. Also there is description of how the subtleness of the love-hate is lot more powerful at subtle level.
