love is a verb

  

Captain January, 1924

.

love never exists 
as a fact 

it is a verb 
and you can do 
all things 
with or without it 

it is nature 
in action 
being true 
to itself 
without even 
a thought


—Benjamin Dean

.

It is earnestness that is indispensable, the crucial factor. 

Sadhana is only a vessel and it must be filled to the brim with earnestness, which is but love in action. 

For nothing can be done without love.


—Nisargadatta Maharaj

Te l’ai dit en janvier
Te le dirai en août.

I told you in January
I will tell you in August.
