Passion is an emotional fire that burns brightly and seductively, but can be impermanent and lead to suffering.

When passion has a cause it turns into lust. Passion leads to grasping with the outcome being fear.

Love, on the other hand, is a necessary condition for compassion. Love is the essence of virtue.

One of the odd things about love is that whatever you do will be correct if you love without attatachment.

Love can be only when the thought of self is absent. Love is a state of being, and in that state, the 'me' with its

identifications, anxieties, and possessions, is absent. Love cannot be, as long as the activities of the self, of the 'me',

whether conscious or unconscious, continue to exist. Love is freedom, Do you agree with me?
