OSHO: The Coolness of Love


silence shared with words

presents

The love of love

Please tell us about the freshness of love.

You are over taught with hot dogs!

Passion is hot,

but passion is not love.

Passion is an attempt to exploit the other

for your biological and sexual needs.

As a man

who has given up passion

becomes cold – cold ice,

almost dead.

Love is

right in the middle of these two extremes,

hot dogs

and cold saints.

In your restaurant you have to start

sell hot dog and cold saint

these are the two extremes.

Exactly between these two

it’s

the freshness of love.

Love is not cold

and love is not hot;

it is cool puhi,

fresh puhi,

Early morning breakfast.

When she comes to you,

you feel almost

young people again,

fresh again,

as if suddenly

you had a shower.

Passion uses the other;

therefore passion is a constant struggle

than the so-called passionate lovers

that the two try to use the other.

love

does not use the other;

she gives it

his heart

other.

It is not the desire to get something,

but desire

to share something.

One is full of

peace, serenity and happiness,

and wants to share it with them

who are close.

They can be friends,

they may be spouses, wives, children, father,

mother

anyone.

love has

a tremendous freshness.

But very few people

have achieved the freshness of love.

They are either hot and passionate,

or

when they

tired and bored with this heat,

turn to the opposite

they become the cold-ice saint,

frozen.

Mind has a way

movement as a pendulum,

from one end to the other.

So walk away,

with the moving pendulum

from one end to the other.

If the pendulum

stop in the middle,

this will be

the freshness of love;

and if the pendulum stops in the middle,

even the hour will stop.

I can say this in another way:

in moments of fresh love,

you feel

that time has stopped;

that nothing moves

everything has stopped.

It is so silent

that there is not even a plumbing

in the lake of your conscience.

My desire is

to fill this world with fresh love;

and through fresh love

we can bring it to life

a young man,

new humanity

which are urgently needed.

And I hope

that man has sufficient intelligence

not to choose death,

which he will choose

a different life style

without conflict, without wars,

full of

peace that surpasses

understanding.

Hope that man will not

proved so retarded

how to destroy oneself.

The most extraordinary thing that can happen

to save mankind

is the freshness of love

kindness.

Passion consumes you,

and in the same way, the frozen saint

is already dead.

Love keeps you alive,

and the coolness holds you

young and fresh.

Man can have

such a wonderful planet

and so wonderful humanity.

only

a little understanding must,

and I think understanding is growing,

slowly

but

constantly.

If you can understand me,

then anyone else in the world

can also understand me.

Maybe it may take longer for them,

but did not exist

before no time

when understanding was needed so much.

It’s no small matter, because now understanding is the same as life.
