Swami Mukundananda

Why does getting more from the world never satisfy my desires?

Worldly things are a mirage that cannot satisfy

Trying to satisfy by giving is like putting ghee on a fire to put it out: it dies for a moment, then flares up double. The joy you seek in the world is a mirage.

The joy you are searching for in the world is like chasing a mirage, just as a deer mistakes flying grains of sand for water.
