Talks from Tamborine Mountain 1987 - February
Love is space and presence—without opposite and without pain. Suffering in 'love' arises from attachment, which holds to objects, memories, and expectations. Separate love from attachment and you will stand in the fine reality that lets all things pass through.
'Love is the state without an opposite.'
'Love has never caused anyone any pain. It's not because of love, it's because of our attachment to love or the object of our love.'
'Do you suffer in your love life? Then you are attached.'
'Love does not offer resistance.'
'Love is now.'
'Whatever you think about you are attached to.'
'Finally, you must be able to stand and let the whole of existence sweep through you.'
