unknown is needed. Without it you will be a syllogism of logic but you will notbe a poetry. Without it you may be quite right, but just 'quite right' -- noromance, no poetry, no dance.Love is the mysterious, the law is the non-mysterious. The law helps you to be inthe world; love gives you the reason to be. The law gives you the cause to be, andlove gives you the reason to be. The law gives you the base; love becomes thehome, the house.And remember one thing: that the base can exist without the house, but thehouse cannot exist without the base. The lower can exist without the higher, thehigher cannot exist without the lower. A man can exist with just bread -- he willnot have anything worth having, he will not have any reason to exist -- but hecan exist; he can just vegetate. But even a great lover cannot exist without bread:even Jesus or Buddha cannot exist without bread. They have found the celestialhome of love, but they cannot exist without bread.The lower is, in a way, independent of the higher. The higher is dependent, in away, on the lower. But this is so. And it seems simple, it is easy. You make atemple.... What we call in India the kalash, the golden cap of the temple, cannotexist without the whole temple there. If you remove the temple, the kalash -- thegolden cap -- will fall down. It cannot exist without the temple. Of course, thetemple can exist without the cap; there is no problem about it.Just think: a man is hungry -- can he dance? Dance is impossible. The man isstarving, he cannot even think. He cannot imagine what dance means. He mayhave known it in the past, but he will not even be able to believe that he hasknown it. It seems impossible, it seems almost nonexistential. It cannot exist in astarved body -- how can you think of a dance descending? But think of anotherman who is well fed and without any dance. There is no trouble -- you canvegetate.The higher is not a must, it is a freedom. If you want, you grow in it; if you don'twant, there is nobody forcing you to grow in it. The lower is a need, it is not yourchoice. It has to be fulfilled.Law is anti-love. If you are too lawful, you will not be able to love anybody --because the very quality of love is spontaneity. It comes from the blue, it candisappear in the blue. It has no reason, no cause here. It happens like a miracle, itis magical. Why it happens, how it happens, nobody knows. It cannot bemanipulated: it is anti-law, it is anti-gravitation, it is anti-science, it is anti-logic.It is against all logic and against all law.Love cannot be proved in any lab, and love cannot be proved by any logic. If youtry to prove it by logic, you will come to know that there is nothing like love,love is impossible. It cannot exist -- but it exists! Even great scientists fall in love.They cannot prove it in their labs, they cannot argue for it, but they also fall inlove. Even an Einstein falls in love.Love makes everybody humble. Even Einstein -- so proud of his logic, argument,science -- suddenly falls in love one day: an ordinary woman -- Frau Einstein.Come Follow To You Vol 1Osho
