In love, we surrender to the loved one, saying:"Tell me what you want. I'm with you."
In attachment we say:"I want you in this way."
In love we say:"I cannot hurt you."
In attachment we say:"Please do not hurt me like this."
Love is outward - a donation.
Attachment is inward - an expectation.
Can love be there for a single person at the cost of others? That is attachment.
Love is Non-violence. That cannot be practiced for a single person.
When non-violence against one means violence against another, then love is Dharma - the action of basic rightness.
Practised in full disclosure and honesty, love is Truth.
