Love as conscious offering rather than possession, where boundaries protect the integrity of what we give.
In Mirabai's tradition, prema—divine love—is not passive surrender but active devotion rooted in choice. For boundaries in love, this means understanding that true giving requires a self to give from. Mirabai's fierce devotion to Krishna was inseparable from her refusal to be claimed by family or convention; she loved radically precisely because she honored her own spiritual autonomy. When we apply prema to modern relationships, boundaries become the container that allows authentic love to flourish. They prevent love from collapsing into codependency or self-erasure. Setting boundaries is not rejecting love; it is clarifying what we offer and on what terms, making our love a conscious gift rather than compulsive obligation.
