The Egg or the Hen

.. No, I dont want to know about this. What I want to know is what comes first, Peace or Love? Does, peace comes out of love; or love comes out of peace?

The quest is peace, and we hope love is a means to peace - it might be, beyond that I don't know. yup peace!

i remember minu bhai sharing an article which talked of love (in man-woman relationships) just being a result of a few chemical reactions involving hormones, which is quite bipolar in nature --i.e. seeing its highs and lows -- so technically this 'love-road' makes being at peace a transient feeling aswell.. So this means, the act of feeling love towards a person, logically should not be the road to peace -- :| -- huh!! :| :| Maybe we should try falling in love with other things .. like .. emmm.. painting or .. emmm... maybe, dogs? Okay !! Enough I say ;)

The english language does have words for such situations, say if you fell in love with your dog ;-)
so there, the situation ain't unique ;-). Love, sex, companionship, peace - is the quest is on and what a quest. We are all chemicals but what of it!!

I think the two are exclusive yet perhaps esoterically connected. You can easily have one without the other ^^

@Irfan: How true.. Probably if i would have been told this a few years ago, I might have debated about it. But today, I agree with you 100%. The two really can exist without the other. :-).
Must appreciate your clarity of thought!
