Excerpt from: From Bondage to Freedom, Chapter 3
"Life is fragile. The higher you go, the more fragile. The tree is not so fragile as the flower. The fragrance is even more fragile than the flower – just a small breeze can take it away.
"This is true, that you see innocence and lovingness all over the place in this commune. Naturally, the question has arisen in your mind that why did something like a fascist calamity happen to you?
"Innocence can be taken advantage of. Lovingness can be exploited.
"But no harm has been done to you! Fragrance may be fragile; it may exist only for a moment, but that moment is eternity. The rock may exist for eternity, but that eternity is not even equal to a single moment of fragrance.
"The people who tried to exploit your innocence and love, your trust, have not destroyed you; they have destroyed themselves.
"This is the beauty of the power of love, the power of trust, the power of innocence.
"What harm has been done to you? No harm can be done to you. Even if you are killed, your loving being and your trusting being and your inner innocence are eternal. And you have seen the whole drama, that the people who were powerful but in the service of destructiveness had to escape finally. Love is victorious." Osho
