What is Love?????
What is Love?????
Love should be an absolute act of freedom.
But you have also been told for thousands of years that, ”If you really love then your love has to be permanent.”
I don’t see that anything in life has the quality of being permanent.
Love cannot be an exception.
So don’t expect that love has to be permanent.
It will make your love life more beautiful, because you know today you are together, tomorrow perhaps you will have to depart.
Love comes like a fresh,fragrant breeze into your home, fills it with freshness and fragrance, remains as long as existence allows it and then moves out.
You should not try to close all your doors or the same fresh breeze will become absolutely stale.
That’s what people’s lives have become – stale, ugly – and the reason lies in their idea of permanent love.
In life everything is changing.
And change is beautiful; it gives you more and more experience,more and more awareness, more and more maturity.

CHAPTER 2. NOBODY IS AT HOME
Hari Om Tat Sat
Remember, when your happiness depends on others, your unhappiness also will depend on others.
If you are happy because a woman loves you, you will become unhappy if she does not love you.
If you are happy for any reason whatsoever, then any day the reason is not there, you will become unhappy.
Your happiness will always be on the rocks, you will always remain in stormy weather.
You will never be certain whether you are happy or unhappy, because each moment you will see the ground underneath can disappear --
Any moment it can disappear.
You can never be certain.
The woman was smiling just now, and then she has become angry.
The husband was talking so beautifully and suddenly he has lost his temper.
Depending on others is depending -- it is a bondage, it is a dependence, and one can never feel really blissful.
Blissfulness is possible only in total, unconditional freedom.
