      We can never be satisfied along the Path of Pain. We must Connect In Corrected Desire to know Satisfaction ❤️

      We can’t be at this egoistic level of receiving to receive, or of giving to receive.  The only way to be satisfied is to develop the will to bestow.

      When our desire to to give, actually gives us more pleasure than receiving. But we need the creator to help us do this.

      By bestowal. Receiving pleasure from seeing fulfillment in others. When you do not expect anything in return you can be satisfied and freed from the misuse of desire (by having the desire to see others fulfilled).

      Temporarily.  When the pleasure subsides than my egoistic desires return.  (I hope I understood the question right)

      pretty sure this is why many of us get stuck in dopamine reward feedback loops
