Evolution of love

ASKING IS AN OPEN DOOR

‘I don’t believe anything about you – that is Love’

Friend: Another aspect of Indian culture is bhakti, devotion.
Every house has an altar, you keep it clean, you put up flowers every day. People get together, there’s community, and singing—there is all this devotion to the guru.

Katie: And see I'm like the ultimate bhakti because what
you've just described is how I experience existence. My self, on my knees to myself. It's always kept clean that way. And
it’s always worshipped that way. Because it's what is. It’s met. Joined with.

Friend: Katie, there's something in me right now that feels
like this bhakti, this love thing, is very important. You know, the mind can say, oh, it's a projection, it’s not real wisdom—
its duality—but there's something in me that just feels that
it's closer. Like you said, if you're me and I’m you, it’s all the same, then that's love.

Katie: And that is what—this» is really loose language—I am trying to hold sacred, and leave you also.

Friend: Leave me?

Katie: Leave you also. To take from you what you have,
leaves it. But without attachment—

Friend: Leaver you as me? Would you say that again, I didn't get it -

Katie: Like you want to hold on to that love thing.
And if that’s what you want, I’ll support it. You see, I want you to have what you want. Because that's what IS. But if you come to me, and you present yourself in such a way that is asking, or is interpreted as an asking, then I am going to take that.

I'm going to get your baby and I'm going to throw it in the
fire, your baby love. It will give you, beyond a concept, that which you wanted REALLY. It will leave you as THAT.

Friend: Thank you, you have done that.
Friend #2: And you’re doing it right now.
