| BkIV:7.II.6 | You cannot remember love. You can only know it. When you meet it, you know that love is what you are. Therefore you need not apply any kind of memory or thought, because what would be the point of devoting oneself to remembering oneself and thinking of oneself? Memory arose as part of the thinking mind in order to configure the reality of time and space, where it fulfills an essential function in the recognition of things. Without memory you could not remember what it is like to walk, talk, eat, or even what your beloved's face looks like. |
