Love is something that is new, fresh, alive.
It has no yesterday and no tomorrow.
It is beyond the turmoil of thought.
It is only the innocent mind which knows what love is,
and the innocent mind can live in the world which is not innocent.
To find this extraordinary thing which man has sought
endlessly through sacrifice, through worship,
through relationship, through sex,
through every form of pleasure and pain,
is only possible when thought
comes to understand itself
and comes naturally to an end.
Then love has no opposite,
then love has no conflict.
