Everybody wants to be loved;
that is a wrong beginning....!

It starts because the child, the small child,
cannot love, cannot say anything, cannot do anything,
cannot give anything; he can only get.....

A small child’s experience of love is of getting:
getting from the mother, getting from the father,
getting from brothers, sisters, getting from guests,
strangers — but always getting...

So the first experience that settles deep
in his unconscious is that he has to get love...!

So all are asking, “Give us love,” and there is
nobody to give because the other person was
also brought up in the same way....!

'One has to be alert and aware that
just an incident of birth should not remain
a constant prevailing state of your mind'...!

Learn giving...

Just give your love to anybody — a stranger...!
It is not a question that you have to give
something very valuable, just a helping hand
and that will be enough...

It is not even a question of a living being....
You can touch this chair with a loving hand.
The thing depends on you, not on the object.

Giving love is the really beautiful experience,
because then you are an emperor...!

Getting love is very small experience,
and it is the experience of a beggar...!

Don’t be a beggar...at least
as far as love is concerned....Be an Emperor!*
