Pleasure...

What you seek is pleasure and not an object. So do not
make the mistake of thinking that your mind wants this or
that object. You do not want anything, only pleasure. And
if you think that a particular object can give pleasure you
go near it, but if it does not give satisfaction you will leave
it alone and go to another place for another object. In this
way, your life is spent looking for pleasure and not for a
particular object which it really cannot find. And nowhere
you will find this pleasure you are seeking - nowhere.
Because it is not a commodity of this world. It belongs
to some other realm altogether.

- Swami Krishnananda
