Thus, in this way LOVE/creator created Himself.
Then the point was correct, any answer would equally suffice-

Which is highest power of this universe ?

No, your will itself is not sentient,
Human will, is like dodder which has no roots but grows around the tree by taking food from it.
As already being said, One is already being haunted by LOVE before haunting LOVE.
And as already said, love cannot exist without the components necessary. It's an emotion.
To use the word in any other context is to use it incorrectly.
In the beganing LOVE created one LOVE game for himself to play, but before stepping into that game there was a question in "His" mind.
Q: How can such a game give true enjoyment until i may forget that am the creator of this game ? Thus.. he turned this game into an illusionary game, Which means that he will forget everything, his power, his rank, his place, his status, after jumping into that game.
But again an another new question got arrised, Q: As he will forget everthing about himself after jumping into that game, than who will pull him out when he will get tired after playing a lot ? Thus, he created a CLONE of himself and gave him the duty to pull him out.
Now, asked the clone; Sir, how will i come to know that you are really tired of this game ? said LOVE; when i'll cry and beg infront of you to take me out of this game like as you have created me, rather than i created you.
And finally by saying this LOVE jumped into that LOVE game.
Thus, in this way LOVE/creator created Himself.
Meh, I still like the creation story from the Silmarillion better.
An hour and a half and nine pages.

The highest power of the universe is the Universe.

Without reading through the thread...
Measuring power in a universal sense is pretty difficult. First one has to define power. I'll use my standard definition which I'm sure someone will disagree with:
Power is the ability to control reality.
So, in order to determine which form of power is the highest, we'll have to establish what sets one form above another. I've nailed down a few things because I think about power all the time because I'm a nutball.
Here they are:
1) Most forms of power require that you expend them in order to glean the control you desire. This is a risk, as once its expended, it doesn't necessarily come back and doesn't necessarily achieve your goals. Which means that these forms of power can be squandered and wasted. Any forms that fall into this category are lesser than any that do not.
2) Many forms of power are limited in their application. Some forms of power will make controlling some things very easy, and controlling other things very difficult. The forms of power that can be applied to the most situations are naturally higher than those that can be applied to fewer.
3) Most forms of power are reduced for the individual when shared with others. This creates another risk, as it is unfortunately the case that others will not always utilize power that we share with them in the ways we expect. Forms of power that do not reduce when shared are superior to those that do.
So, taking these three things into account, any form of power that is not expended when used, can be universally applied, and does not reduce when shared is probably pretty good. I don't know which would be the highest, but I'm going to take a stab with KNOWLEDGE!
Knowledge is not expended when utilized and actually increases with use.
Knowledge can be (and probably must be) applied to everything.
Knowledge, when shared, again does not reduce but actually increases.
I don't think knowledge is the only form of power that works this way, but I really can't think of any others right now.

Trust me: you're not missing much.
Gravity?What do you think ?

Plus, in a weird anthropomorphic way, it's kind of like love. Both involve attraction.

I think that there are situations where these are true, but there are also situations where these are not true. Consequently, I would say that knowledge is powerful only contextually and relatively.

There are other forces that are relatively more powerful than gravity
Depending upon distance. I'm thinking big, universe sized distances.
And I don't know nuthin about that dark energy stuff.

He was wise to choose her.
