    Prem kutera. It means a small shrine of
    love, a small hut of love, a small space
    for love. Prem means love and kutera
    means a small place.

    And that's all that a man needs to be
    fulfilled: if one can become a small
    shrine, nothing is lacking.

    The very phenomenon of love integrates
    you, and when love is missing, you start
    falling apart – it is the glue that keeps
    you together. In fact it is the glue that
    keeps the whole existence together;
    otherwise stars will fall apart, the trees
    will fall down, the earth will not care and
    no child will grow in a womb.

    It is love that keeps everything going,
    and the misery of man is that he has
    forgotten the language of love. The
    reason why he has forgotten the
    language of love is: he has become too
    identified with reason.

    Nothing is wrong with reason but it has a
    tendency to monopolise; it clings to the
    whole of your being. Then feeling suffers
    – feeling is starved, and by and by you
    forget about feeling completely. So it
    goes on shrinking and shrinking and
    shrinking, and that dead feeling becomes
    a dead weight, that feeling becomes a
    dead heart.

    Then one can go on pulling oneself just
    somehow – it will always be 'somehow'.
    There will be no charm, no magic,
    because without love there is no magic in
    life, and there will be no poetry either; it
    will be prose, flat. Yes, it will have a
    grammar but it will not have a song in it...
