Love is not an idea. It is not fear or dependence. It is not jealousy, possessiveness or domination either. It's not responsibility or duty. It's not self-pity. It's also not the opposite of hate. Love starts with freedom and passion, and ends with absolute oneness. Love is not past or future. It is ever-present and timeless. A mind full of thoughts cannot experience love. In a movie, when we can no longer see the difference between the actor and the acting, as the actor and the acting have achieved oneness, it is love. When we see a flower blooming, for absolutely no reason, it is love. Derived from the works of J. Krishnamurthi
