The way of love is the way of no-expectation.
Love exists only when there is total acceptance and no desire to change anything.
The moment you start thinking of how the other should be…
whether the other is your lover, your beloved, your child, your master, your disciple…
it does not matter who the other is.
What matters is a total acceptance of the other As he is.
Not tolerance — tolerance is an ugly word.
In the very word "tolerance" there is intolerance.
The very word smells as if somehow against your will you are managing it:
it is not a loving acceptance but an unloving tolerance.
But I knew that so many people could not stay with me. It is not a journey for all, it is a journey only for the chosen few.
Now it is a pure love without any conditions attached to it. Only in this purity of love are miracles possible — and they are happening.
