How can we ever be satisfied if the pleasure always neutralizes our desire?

How can we ever be satisfied if the pleasure always neutralizes our desire?

[henry]

El placer siempre anula el deseo al quedar este cumplido; esto es cierto para placeres terrenales, tal como el alimento, dinero, el deseo de poder. Se sacian, para reaparecer luego con más intensidad, por lo cual nunca son satisfechos. Si elevamos nuestro deseo hacia el mundo espiritual y el acercamiento al creador, este nunca se extinguirá.

If this were not so,  we would not be motivated by new desires for pleasure just beyond our reach.

We would be stunting our ability to learn (satisfaction), and grow from ego to spirituality.

Maybe we need to work on our desires.

[Bonnie A. Bus]

That’s a challenge I’d like to overcome.

By taking the ego out of the equation and receive in order to bestow

[Daniel W]

Pleasure neutralizes our desires if we are only receiving. By having a desire to bestow, the pleasure is not neutralized.

[kevin jackson]

It can never be done in our present egoic nature and that can only be changed by the Creator
