““When is it considered a true desire of moksha (ultimate liberation)? When it remains a constant stream. But here, in one direction there is a desire for moksha and in the other direction, there are so many desires for worldly things. This creates a “plus-minus” effect and takes away the main desire [for liberation]. A desire must be constant in just one direction, only then will it be realized.””
