When families can't agree on whether passionate love is spiritual or worldly

Our family has always been devout but my brother's new relationship has everyone confused about whether his intense romantic passion is a spiritual awakening or a spiritual crisis. Some of us see his love as a path to the divine, others worry he's lost in attachment, and family gatherings have become tense with unspoken judgments about the nature of his devotion.

More people experience this than they realize.
