Desire..!!


The energy called desire has been condemned for centuries. Almost all the so called saints have been against it and preaching it as the very root cause of pain is having desires.BUt that is not true..

Infact desire is life, your very being is desire, to be against it is to be against yourself and against all. To be against it is to be against the flowers and the birds and the sun and the moon. To be against it is against all creativity. Desire is creativity. Desire without any object, desire without being goal-oriented, unmotivated desire, pure desire, is godliness. Desire is not to be destroyed; it is to be purified. Desire is not to be dropped; it is to be transformed.

The Eastern scriptures are perfectly right when they say that God created the world because a great desire arose in Him – a desire to create, to manifest, a desire to make many from one, to expand. But these are only metaphors. God is not separate from desire. Desire means a longing, a great longing, to expand, to become as huge as the sky. Infact 'Desire' give a 'Will' to dream thus give a will to live..
