The Bauls sing

'let ripeness
appear in its own time
for the full flavor of the fruit

a green jackfruit
can be softened by blows
but not made sweet'

They say, this love you cannot force.

There is no way to manipulate it.

There is nothing that you can do about it.

All that you can do is to allow.
