What is Love?

Whenever we look at something, the first thing we do is to calculate what we can get from it. Whether it is a person or an object, our thoughts start functioning either through fear or through greed. Our attention is centered on that object or person.

It is possible to turn our attention towards our own inner space and ask, 'What can I contribute?', 'What can I add?', 'How can I enrich others?' If you are asking, 'What can I get out of it?', you are driven by lust. If you are asking, 'How can I enrich it?' it is driven by love! Lust always demands. Love always gives.
