Love is not Attachment. When there is Attachment there is Fear.

You have collected so much, not only books, houses, the bank account, but inwardly: the memories of insults, the memories of flattery, the memories of your own particular experiences, neurotic achievements which give you a position.


This is your emotional painbody. And like roots of a tree it goes much deeper down into collective images, negative karma and original sin. It can therefore not be healed through psychotherapy.

To die to all that without argument, without discussion, without any fear, just to give it up; do it some time and you will see.

To do it psychologically—not giving up your wife, your clothes, your husband, your children or your house, but inwardly—is not to be attached to anything. This is the core in simple living.

In that there is great beauty. After all, that is love, isn’t it?

Love is not attachment. When there is attachment there is fear. And fear inevitably becomes authoritarian, possessive, oppressive, dominating.

Primordial Meditation is the understanding of life, which is to bring about harmony.

Harmony is virtue, which is light. In this light the painbody is made transparent. Light is coming up and is pouring down. It is a gift of grace.

This light is not to be lit by another, however experienced, however clever, however erudite, however spiritual.

Nobody on earth or in heaven can light that, except yourself, in your own understanding and meditation.
