MA76T4 - Love, compassion and sorrow
Madras (Chennai), India - 19 December 1976
Public Talk 4
Summary
Devotion is not love.
Without the ending of sorrow, there can be no love.
With the ending of sorrow, compassion comes into being.
Love can only be when there is great humility.
Cultivated humility is another form of vanity.
Sorrow is a summation of energy, a tremendous incident, a great shock, and the body is nervous, anxious, tearful.
Passion is entirely different from lust.
Most people don’t have passion. If you have no passion, you cannot be creative.
Compassion cannot be cultivated by thought.
Love is not pleasure.
There can be love, compassion and beauty only when you are not.
