“You
can try to understand love through theories, and you can even create
your own theories about it. But you will only know what love is by
loving, by allowing yourself to experience love. If you try to use your
mind to understand love on an intellectual level, you may even acquire
some knowledge, but it will be nothing more than a bunch of thoughts.
Knowledge serves to place you on the path, but at some point you need to
give up knowledge in order to create space to experience love. The goal
of knowledge is to serve as a bridge to wisdom; when it is not serving
this goal, it starts to poison you.”
- Sri Prem Baba
