This is taken from the chapter: Ordinary Love and the Love of a Buddha.
"....thinking is time. If you do not think, there is no time. That is why in meditation you feel a timelessness. That is why in love you feel a timelessness. Love is not thinking, it a a cessation of thought. You are! When you are with your beloved, you are not thinking about love, you are not thinking at all. And if you are thinking, then you are not with your beloved, you are somewhere else. Thinking means absence from the now...you are not there.
That is why those who are too much obsessed with thinking cannot love, because even when they are there, even if they reach to the original divine source, even if they meet God, they will go on thinking about him and they will mess him completely. You can go on thinking about and about and about, but it is never the fact."
I think this is interesting. Why? I will say some other time. I am trying to say less and do more
