Desire is a burning fire. It will not extinguish until the desire is
fulfilled. The Lord has said that desire is an obstructing karma. The only
desire worth having is for liberation and for a Gnani Purush; such desires
will not cause any obstructions. All other desires will continue to scorch
you. They are fire-incarnate. People look for water to put it out but
instead what they end up sprinkling over it is petrol (kashaya: anger,
pride, attachment, greed). Even before a single desire is fulfilled,
another one springs up. They keep coming, one after another, in
succession. The natural law
says that whatever desires you have, will certainly be fulfilled, but
nothing will be accomplished by thinking about them.
