Desires ~ The rings go on multiplying

Tedd Surman is the director of Yoga Awareness International Yoga & Ayurveda Trainings in Maui, Hawaii

We possess mental and intellectual faculties which are all active. Our mind determines the actions of the body. We see, hear, feel and understand things. We begin to like or dislike them. Desires gradually begin to creep in and affect our actions. The rings go on multiplying and we exert ourselves for the fulfilment of desires.
