      Having pleasure from feeling somebody else being satisfied in receiving from Creator enlightenment and not thinking about me.

      I need an unlimited ever-expending desire that can draw a boundless fulfillment. to do that I have to seek pleasure in the fulfillment  of others because this desire to bestow is a spiritual desire and one taste of it is greater than all the pleasure felt by all  creatures over all time because it’s a pleasure not felt in our little subjective needs but in everything. there is no limit to that desire and there is no end that the pleasure derive from the need.

      Developing a screen and striking a balance, finding the middle line. Seeing that each decent is really an ascent, using the ego as a buffer. Gathering the desires and separating them where they should go. If we follow the right desire then most of the time, it’s never truly neutralized until it finds its fulfillment.

      You have to strike a balance, free will comes to play here, where you receive and bestow without expectation or reward for yourself. Always ask yourself,  what is your true intention for the desire, is it for our own pleasure or to delight the Creator.
