Can love exist when there is attachment, when there is pride or possession in that which you love? When you say, ‘It’s my wife, my husband,’ in that state is there love? Is there love when you are jealous, when your wife or husband turns away from you and you feel lonely, miserable, agonised? Is that love? And is it love of God when you go to church every day or once a week, and go through all the business of it?
