Love is the essence of life, and you cannot give your life to another. Desire only seems to be a blessing, but it is a flame that scorches the soul, it is a fire - blind and cruel.

If you love the body, it is only desire. Love is an attitude to a person, not to his body. And here is the secret of love.

That is why love is not born immediately, only desire immediately arises. Those who cannot distinguish love from desire are doomed to suffering. Those who donate do not love. The one who has not found himself yet cannot love.
