Abandon anger, Be done with conceit, Get beyond every fetter.

When for name and form You have no attachment--have nothing at all--no sufferings, no stresses, invade.

-Dhammapada 17, translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu

The first Nobel Truth is that there is suffering in the world. The second Noble Truth is that the cause of auffering is attachment.

We understand the truth spoken here. Love, higher love, without attachment does no harm.
