Love : if it happens, it happens !

Love is something that cannot be enforced -- if it happens, it happens; if it does not happen it does not happen.

So the cunning people decide that before you start asking about love it is better to arrange a marriage.

All other relationships are given by birth.

There was only one freedom for you: to choose your wife or your husband.

Even that has been destroyed.
You cannot choose your mother, you cannot choose your father, you cannot choose your brothers and your sisters -- that is all accidental.

You cannot choose your uncles, your aunts; that is beyond your choice.
The only freedom was that you could choose your beloved -- but that too was denied.

People were married when they were so small, six years old, seven years old.

In India marriages used to be arranged even while the child was inside the womb. People used to arrange that "if your child turns out to be a boy, and my child turns out to be a girl, or vice versa,we will marry them."

The marriage was already decided before the birth! This was a strategy to poison love. So the child would grow with the wife or the husband just as one grows with one's
brothers and sisters: he would become accustomed, love would never happen.

The society is very much afraid of love. It condemns love, it calls love blind.

The fact is, love is the only phenomenon which is not blind; everything else is blind. Logic is blind, not love, but you have been told that love is blind, you have been told that love is mad.

In all the languages of the world this type of expression exists: "falling in love" -- as if one falls!

I would like to change it. Whenever you are in love never say, "I have fallen in love," say, "I have RISEN in
love."

It is reaching higher than you have ever been before.

It is not a fall, it is growth.
