So many people. With so many desires. Why do we desire
if you ask some people they will say. Enjoy life. There is only one life. Eat. Enjoy. There is nothing beyond it
Others will say – enjoy but be nice. You want to go to heaven. Now mind you. They have not seen heaven. They go by what they have read. Been told and what their religion told them
Others will feel good when they do good to others. Mother Teresa for example. Yes she believes in God but she did not chase heaven
Lastly there is the elite group of yogi who have discovered peace and joy within. In meditation. They can sit in meditation for days or months and not miss anything in the world
And there are a few who are want to be yogi. They have the difficult task of maintaining a balanced of fulfilling things in the world and meditation
One thing is sure. There are 5 senses.
1. Sight. Fulfillment of this includes desire to travel. Nature. Scenary
2. Hearing. Loving music praises etc
3. Touch – sex massages etc
4. Smell – different fragrances are alluring
5. Taste – eating
The body has been designed in such a way that if you get rid of a few attachment like hearing or music the soul will then dwell on some other sense and get obsessed with it.
Somehow somewhere the soul gets entrapped. Ensnared
The only way out is meditation. Learning of your existence without any of them
Learn the right technique
And then all dilemmas will go away
Don’t constantly pursue desires. Ultimately they will betray you. Don’t neglect desires you will get depressed. Overcome desires slowly by holding onto something fabulous within
