Lower states such as nervous, anxious, enraged, etc are all biomechanically based and easy to show.

Not if the mind incorporates the symptoms of neurological behavior into its image of the supposed “higher” emotion. The three example of love can illustrate this.
- Relationship love is simply basic bonding that happens between sexual partners.
- Love of one’s wife is the lust and infatuation we experience when we meet a potential mate.
- Love of one’s children is the paternal instinct to protect your genetic investment.
With each case one’s experience of love seems became more real. While from aside I can say that with each step the love became more instinctive.
I am theorizing greatly of course. Nor am I denying that true love exists, simply trying to understand it.
