Only in aloneness can you have relationships that are not exploitative. Otherwise, it doesn’t matter what name, what color you give to your relationship; your relationship will be definitely one of exploitation.

Have you ever looked at your relationships closely? Do you ever want the other? No. You just want to exploit the other. The proof of that is, that which you want from the other, if it is not obtained, you start disliking the other.

You never want the other. You always want something through the other. That is, you want to exploit the other.
