अध्याय १३

II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

तरि भूतलें आठवे I कां बोलें कानु झाकवें I ऐसियावरि चेतवे I जें गा वृत्ति II 122 II
इंद्रियां विषयांचिये भेटी I सरसीच जे गा उठी I कामाची बाहुटी I धरूनियां II 123 II
जियेचनि उठिलेपणें I मना सैंघ धांवणें I न रिघावें तेथ करणें I तोंडें सुती II 124 II
जिये वृत्तीचिया आवडी I बुद्धि होय वेडी I विषयां जिय गोडी I ते गा इच्छा II 125 II
आणि इच्छिलिया सांगडें I इंद्रियां आमिष न जोडे I जेथ जोडेऐसा जो डावो पडे I तोचि द्वेष II 126 II

"Lord Krishna said, let Me now illustrate you the Desire. The lingering effects, memories, and subtle cravings that past sensory pleasures leave on the mind. The ripples on the mind they generate by reminding of them or when they fall on our ears. That which comes up from the interaction between our sense organs and the objects of the senses. That which agitates the mind, directing thoughts and actions toward their fulfillment. The mind is wired to explore and push boundaries, making the "forbidden" a powerful, albeit often temporary, magnet for human desire. That which makes the intellect lose its poise. It is seen as a "pebble" thrown into the "pond" of the mind, creating ripples that disturb its natural calmness and steadiness. That which is intrinsically linked to sensory experience and can become a self-perpetuating, addictive cycle, that is Desire. When the senses crave what's denied, that longing (or attachment/desire) fuels negative emotions like Dvesh (aversion/hatred/anger)."
