Desire

What is desire?
What is the object of desire?
Why do we desire thing?

Mind knowing its nature of impermanence seeks continuation.
It fears cessation and end of thinking.
It want to be occupied.

Does not desire breed fear of failure to achieve?
In achieving its desire does it not seek another?
What is important is the desire itself instead of what is desired?

What is the highest desire of all?
Is it not wanting to know god the unknowable?
Or is it desire of mind for its continuity?

Is there anything that is permanent?

By understanding the nature of desire,
There is action.
This action is cessation of desire.
