DESIRE IS LIFE
Desire is life. The fulfillment of life is the perfection of desire.
As the scent of a lone flower is desire that fades with the death of the flower,
that has no being in itself but comes into rejoicing with life;
As the roaring waters rushing through the dark valley - - hidden, boisterous, terrible - -
so is desire.
As angry as the waters seeking a release is desire.
Woe to him who is caught up therein.
Through the dark valley lie the open, smiling fields,
and the scent of many flowers.
The fear of desire is the putting away of life.
