Friendliness is one of the most significant qualities for the
seeker to develop; it is really sweet. It makes your whole life full of sweet
music, full of sweet harmony. In Buddha's vision it is higher than so-called
love. Your so-called love is tethered to your biology; friendliness is freedom
from biology. The ordinary so-called love is the same in human beings as it is
in animals, as it is in the trees. It is sex-oriented. It is only a
sugarcoating around the bitter pill of sex. In fact, if love is taken away from
your sex, sex will look very sidiculous. It is because of the sugarcoating that
you can swallow the pill.
