I do remember, you said you are not Buddha. But for anybody else you still seem to be representing Buddha in some way. So I cannot resist commenting when something does not match.
But feeling is not right. Feeling is an animal instinct. You move closer to an animal realm if you let feelings drive, if you use feelings for anything other than just monitoring and using them to understand your own body, which actually is one of the species of animals. You do need to go beyond body. But that cannot be achieved through feeling. Feeling sucks you right back into the middle of your animal body (remember that braincells and all the electricity within, that makes up feelings, is part of the same body). Feelings, just like in any other animal where they are called instincts, are only useful for navigation in this physical world, and even in that they fail if there are rational independent creatures around.
Only rational understanding can allow you to go beyond your body and see yourself from outside of not just your body, but outside of samsara I would say.
Also love is an unusable word in modern times. Maybe it made sense 2500 years ago, I don't know, but after millenniums of indoctrinations it can mean anything, and therefore is useless as a term.
