Acharya Prashant explains that the love sung of by saints like Kabir Saheb is fundamentally different from social or biological love. He describes transcendental love as something that cannot be recognized through prior experience or books because it is not pattern-based. Unlike social love, which is marketable and easily identified through specific gestures or physical reactions, divine love is often characterized by deep melancholy, contradiction, and a sense of being 'killed softly' by a nonchalant beloved. He emphasizes that this love often goes unnamed for a long time, which is beneficial because naming it too early might lead the ego to block it.
