An object that is sweet and pleasant to you at one time, produces the very reverse of that sensation at another. Every one of you have this experience. Objects are pleasant only when a longing for them is there. But they are unpleasant when there is no such longing. Thus, desire is the cause of pleasure When satisfaction arises through the enjoyment of objects, the pleasure then ceases. If your mind is destitute of desires, then you will always enjoy serenity, equanimity, balance and poise in spite of many obstacles or adversities. The foundation of desire is love of sensual pleasures. Desires run along the path of your inclination, proclivity or tendency or taste. Desire is the fuel. Thought is the fire. If you withdraw the fuel of desire, the fire of thought will be extinguished like an oil-less lamp. The intellect becomes impure by association with sensual desires Hatred is a modification of the mind. it is a negative modification. It impels a man who has experienced pain from a certain Object to dislike it when he beholds the same Object again. Hatred, which arises when desires is not fulfilled, is also a modification of the field because it is knowable Pleasure is agreeable and peaceful and made of wisdom This is also the Field because it is knowable. Pain is disagreeable or unpleasant. It is also in the domain of the Field because it is knowable. Munshie Sha. Disciple of Nature of Law.& Bhagavad gita.
