“So when you talk of love, kindly do not get excited,
there is nothing exciting about love.
Just as there is nothing exciting about pure water.
But pure water is life, life giving.
There is a lot that is exciting about fizzy drinks, about liquor.
But about water, there is nothing exciting; it is simple, pure, transparent
Love is like pure water.
It is not sensational, it is not sentimental, it is not titillating”
Shri Prashant

A man, who is dull and bored and careless and violent in the office,
cannot be a loving father or a loving husband.
After all it is the same mind; he will carry the same mind into the house
as well.

A lady, who does not care for small kids in the slum opposite her house,
cannot be a loving mother.
It is impossible.
How is it possible to love your kids, when you only have indifference to the other
kids, who are shivering in the cold?

A man, who kills animals, cannot have love for anybody.
After all it is the same mind.
When you do not have sensitivity and you can use the knife on one being,
then how will you mind suddenly become sensitive towards rest of the world?

The punishment of remaining conditioned is
that you will never know love

Forget love,
