Is satisfaction better than desires?

Both the thing happen in a human. human try to desire more and simultaneously try to satisfy in the current thing. both are the state of mind. we should go far from these two. whatever that bound human can not give happiness to human. and these two things bind human. first bind for stay and second bind to run. We have to go away from these two. Emptyness is completness. That is necessary.

Fulfilment of Desire, want, carving, longing is not satisfaction, like a action reaction pair, a bullet fired and the gun recoil a mechanical analogy,   and salvation is a thought concept of a great escape. Like travelling back in time.

Lets have some lighter moments dear, the crow :)

I , as an ex-student of Science , present my view based on the Bird called THE CROW which is also popularly known as THE BLACK  BIRD. This Bird's sound is cawing .

        caw!  caw!  Caw! 

When we hear the  Bird carefully , the sound also contains an 'r '  end-sounding  to be called  cra-ing

         cra!   cra! cra!  cra!

being  uttered by the Bird.

That's why called the harsh cry of a Crow ! As the crow flies , it takes always direct routes and its lustrous black  plumage used inverted as the writing-point-tip-pen  in the good olden days.

The Crow when craws as

        craw ! craw! craw ! , 

 means

    KARTA , KARMA , KRIYA , 

    i.e.,         the YOU ! 

Relevant to the debate , Karta  means You , Karma means Satisfaction and Kriya  means  desire .You  is subject to Limit tending from zero to infinity . Your mind tends to infinity  as zero tends to infinity ! Unlimited satisfaction and unlimited  desire  constitute the You  subject to Infinity as zero tends to infinity .

The rest of the knowledge is a part of My Universal Secret called THE CONTROL- CHART

For all those who "Desire More", you will come to this side of the debate after fulfilling your desires and have finally found some satisfaction in life.

Until then, "Satisfaction" has to wait!

Desire to do something selfish is really good. But look around you. What do you find?

How many of us have the time to hold the hand of a Blind while he's struggling half a day to cross the road.

The desire to do such deeds is nothing but lost if not dead today! We are living in a so-called diplomatic life which restricts us from helping the needy!

When was the last time that we planted a tree? When is the last time we read the alphabets with a poor kid? When was it that we let go our promotion to help that old Mr. Eddie who was badly in need of an increment? When have we thrown a biscuit at a dog only with an intention to feed it? When have we skipped a new year's party to collect money for Awaaz do campaign of UNICEF?

Desire for More leads to only one place- To desire for even more!

What do men with money want? More money!

Being proactive or hyper is one thing, and recognizing the small happiness and satisfaction lives throws at you once in a while is another!

Desire is the cause for pain- Gautam Buddha!

Hello Neha,

I am no MA in English from Oxford or Cambridge University.

Desire is want, passion is love without ownership or obsession a fascination.

To Desire (want) you should have the means, or you will have to grab it, snatch it, or cheat, run rackets do some drama (fooling) end up in scam. We all paying for it.

Please don't get upset Neha 

Be passionate, have no  desire, give your best, have no expectation, you have done it, you have satisfaction, happiness all over. If specialised skills/gears are needed, acquire it. Get a step ahead and redefine it. This is a win – win situation.

People grown up with childhood experience of scarcity may not comprehend / appreciate what I am saying, as such people often compete, the desire to win, have all, sets in. It turns into a win lose situation resulting to conflict, I win my desire is fulfilled, else I compete, I run rackets, I do drama (act); I have won, I am satisfied, I made it. The cost we all pay. 

"Its a distinction between satisfaction and desire."

This may sound a bit different answer, but both are interlinked - Desire what ever you wish for, if it happens, feel satisfied so that your future desires are also fulfilled...Humans are meant to have desires and this is inborn and this is very true. Being satisfied has to be cultivated in an individual. This is a very valuable trait that one acquires...

Also, have the attitude -"Hua to acha, naih hua to bahut acha"

By being satisfied, you are acknowledging and showing your gratitude to the Cosmic Power (You may call it god if it pleases you). Yes, it was due to the grace of the cosmic powers that our desires have fructified. If I have a sense of gratitude, I would be satisfied with the grace I have been bestowed upon. If I have the feeling of gratitude, then I genuinely acknowledge the workings of the cosmic powers – which is accessed every moment through my sub-conscious mind. This, very unknowing to me, will strengthen my confidence on the sub-conscious mind and the power of the cosmic power to deliver my desires. Thus, with this confidence, I would be blessed with the fulfillment of more desires.

Example – I have to get some work done by some organization quickly (even when I know it is out of my turn). I go there and talk to the person who is to do the work for me. He is very busy and asks me to come later and when it is my turn. But after speaking to him and pleading with him, he agrees to do the work and completes it for me. Now, only if I am satisfied with his work, I would thank him and / or take him for a treat, etc. If I am not satisfied, I would just walk away and he won’t do any work for me ever again.

So, feel happy and satisfied for all you have received and be sure that more of your wishes would be granted.

Desire makes one to vie for growth in whatsoever field he desires But, satisfaction offers the meaning and completion of that desire.

Anand I wholeheartedly support your statement. As I have already stated desire is the root cause of all evil.

Joydeep I am in total agreement with your views. Desire is the root cause of all evil. Yes one should desire within his means

Good one! Murthy sir.

Our 2G Raja has no satisfaction. Had he been satisfied with 2 or 3 crores ????

No matter what your desires are, if it doesn't give you satisfaction, then its simply painful.

There is a hidden rule in nature, and this I say as a corporate and not as a philosopher who likes to preach!

"Selfless desire = Satisfaction

Selfish Desire = Pain"

Satisfaction, like happiness, comes to us all on its own and in its own time!

"We cannot force it on ourselves or anyone else!"

And desires cannot be misinterpreted to be "Dreams" or "Goals" or "Aims" or "Passion"

Desire that is selfless or selfish decides it all!

If Desire is the way, then Satisfaction is the destiny!

Satisfaction is nothing but reality/fulfillment of your desire.
