Not necessarily, but it helps. I mean, I couldn't love someone I didn't trust, but I could trust someone I didn't love. Let's put it this way: If I love someone, it's essential that I trust them, thus trust is part of love. Absolutely. Yet, I can trust someone (this has to be earned) to repair my car competently, but I don't need to love them. So, no, trust doesn't "prove" love. Not in that context.
Edit: pluto2007<"There is no relationship between love and trust whatsoever" ???? Would you love someone you didn't trust?

I don't think so. You can love someone or something you don't fully trust. It happens all the time with parents and children. Having profound trust is an indication of one of several things. It could be a sign of severe brain washing. It could be a sign of extreme naivety. It could be a sign of love. It could be a sign of profound reliability on the part of who or what the trust is invested in. (example- I trust my car not to fall to pieces when I am driving down the road.) There are a lot of other examples of this. Anyone who gets into an automobile or aircraft is placing profound trust in both the vehicle and the driver or pilot.
Julian, I don't think destroying your very essence - even for a noble cause could be called pure.

I don't think so. It merely proves an expectation of being loved. Or it might only be the kind of trust people place in their accountant, which can be not much more than a means of avoiding personal responsibility. We can have profound trust in a walking stick - and most do. I think we can only truly love when we don't need expectations to support it. It's why real love is selfless, and satisfying whatever happens. Personally I trust anyone to do what satisfies themselves within what their own view of the world and themselves justifies - and that neither denigrates nor diminishes them in my eyes. But the entrustment between a loving group is different from mere trust.

That they love you or you love them?
Love is based on the relationship of faith realized in hope and flowering in love. Insofar as trust (confidence) is preliminary to love one might call it a proof, but I would probably look for something which comes of love as a result thereof as a more effective proof such as patience, kindness, longsuffering, forgiveness, etc. Ultimately Joy is the final proof of love. I don't mean giddiness or just good feelings but the totality of all transcending grief and the sorrows which are part of every relationship realizing the good rather than keeping an account of wrongs. If that is what you mean by profound then that is proof enough.

I think love is built on trust. Earning trust is like building foundations on a house. Other words for trust can be hope, faith, confidence, conviction. These are important feelings you need when you relate to people or, for instance, when you get in a car.
Trust is the first step to love, but does not prove it. It 'proves' the potential for growth. Imagine that Trust is a seed from which love can grow, which needs good soil, light and time in which to develop into something quite beautiful.

Trust is certainly a factor in love but It's not everything. You can be in love even when you know the other person is not as reliable as you would like. (there are limits!!!)
The trick is to NOT place them in situations where trust is a determining factor. If you know they lie, then have a contigency plan for that eventuality. Don't leave money or valuables in a tempting place. etc.
The real test of love is how much it hurts not being with them.

Purification is what is sometimes called salvation, meaning the spirit is freed from the imprisonment of material corporeality in which it is subject to pain. This does not mean the spirit is out of body, but rather, the spirit is made pure by the removal of external forces that made it forget its true nature. Purity is an idea, one very easy to imagine simply by examining the opposite of impurity. If impurity is imperfect, than purity is perfect. Purity is attained by relieving the soul of its mortal nature. If the soul is initially pure, then it can only become impure through contact with other impure things, for example, a person claiming that his body is who he is, rather than claiming that his true nature is an immaterial essence. And so purification depends on how we define ourselves, either as body and soul, body, or simply soul.
Isn't love purity?

Oh my gosh...no. Does the person know how to cherish, nurture, be celebrating of, patient and tender with, nurture room for changes and growth . . .traits as those revealed towards each other in a shared loving relationship shows the love. Is trust a trait in there also? Yes. Yet, trust of itself does not prove love.
You might trust someone you love...yet that person may also be emotional clueless when it comes to being aware of how to nurture a shared love in a relationship.

No profound trust is an attribute of love, it does not prove love.
Like a person having "brown eyes" doesn't prove the person exists, but it is a part of the person.
