Desires are our creations.

We create them by utilizing our mental energy, which is nothing but our modified consciousness.

The purpose of desires is to achieve something from Sansar – Objects, People, or Situations.

Just because desires are created does not mean we will get our desired objects.

Most of the desires keep hovering around in our minds forever, making us restless.

So, desires are only illusory imaginations of our minds; they are not real.

And if they are not real, how can we eliminate them?

Have you tried to get rid of darkness in your room by picking it up and throwing it out of the window?

You can’t.

So, what’s the solution?

Just light up a lamp.

In the same way, a desire is a non-entity, a negativity.

You can’t remove it.

The only thing you can do is light up a lamp of awareness – consciousness.

And the method is MEDITATION.

By intensifying awareness, little by little, desires start fading away.
