Is Desire a Bad Thing?

目次

Do You Believe That “Desire Is Wrong”?

You may have heard things like:

“Desire leads to suffering and should be avoided.”
“Human desire is endless. You’ll never be satisfied, and that’s the root of suffering.”

There’s some truth in this—
especially when desire is only for personal gain at the expense of others or the planet.

But what about these kinds of desires?

  • “I want to make the world a better place.”
  • “I want to protect the environment.”
  • “I want to bring hope to future generations.”

These are expansive, meaningful desires.
Can we really say they are bad?

Beyond “Good vs. Bad” — Seeing Desire Differently

The truth is, “good” and “bad” are just labels created by the human mind.

Desire itself isn’t the problem.

What causes suffering is when desire is born from a mindset of lack or dissatisfaction.

Why Does Desire from Lack Lead to Pain?

Let’s look at some common examples:

  • “I don’t have enough money, so I want more.”
  • “I don’t have a partner, so I want one.”
  • “I hate my job, so I want to change it.”

At first glance, these may sound like healthy goals.
But if the starting point is a feeling of “I’m not okay as I am”,
then that vibration creates a reality that reflects lack—and keeps repeating it.

Where Does This Sense of Lack Come From?

Many people focus only on the visible world.

But everything we see is limited and defined by boundaries.
So we start to compare:

  • “They have it, and I don’t.”
  • “There’s not enough to go around.”
  • “I’m missing something.”

This leads us to focus on what we don’t have—
and that focus generates dissatisfaction.

From there, desire becomes something filled with tension, craving, and frustration.

The True Nature of the Universe Is Infinite Energy

But in truth, the universe isn’t limited at all.

Even what looks solid is simply clusters of energy.

Everything is made of energy,
and the universe is abundant and infinite.

Which means:

When you focus your energy on something you truly want,
universal energy begins to gather—and the physical form follows.

Once you understand this,
the ideas that “desire is bad” or “I don’t have enough” naturally dissolve.

The Simple Key to Shifting Your Energy: Gratitude

The real issue isn’t desire.
It’s the vibration of lack that fuels it.

And the most powerful way to shift that vibration is through gratitude.

Try this shift in perspective:

  • “I don’t have enough money.” → “I’m grateful I have enough to live today.”
  • “I don’t have a partner.” → “I’m thankful just to be alive right now.”
  • “I hate my job.” → “I’m lucky to even have a job.”

When you begin from gratitude,
your desire becomes rooted in abundance, not lack.

Desire That Starts with Gratitude Attracts More Abundance

Desire that begins with gratitude carries a high, harmonious vibration.

That vibration naturally attracts more abundance and joy—
for you and everyone around you.

And because energy expands,
this vibration also benefits the universe itself.

In the Age of Harmony, Desire Born from Gratitude Is Essential

We are now entering a new era—
not one of competition and scarcity,
but one where each person shines in their uniqueness,
and we create a world of harmony together.

This is what some traditions call the Age of Maitreya
an age filled with kindness and balance.

And in this age, what we need most is:

Desire that begins with gratitude.

Desire from Lack Breeds Conflict

Desire that stems from lack and dissatisfaction leads to competition,
division, and even environmental destruction.

If we continue down that path,
neither the Earth nor our hearts will be able to endure.

Your Desire Is the Seed of Your Uniqueness

Many people today feel like giving up on life.

But desire—when honored with love—is not selfish.

It’s the energy that allows your individuality to bloom.

So please don’t deny what you want.
Instead, start with gratitude for what you already have.

Desire that grows from gratitude makes you happy,
radiates out to others,
and becomes a gift to the universe itself.

In Closing

Desire isn’t bad. In fact, you should want more.
When it comes from gratitude, desire becomes a blessing to all.

So go ahead and wish deeply—
not from fear or lack,
but from appreciation, trust, and joy.

Because that’s how we co-create a world where everyone thrives.

Sealed with gratitude & love❤️
