“Your mind projects a structure and you identify yourself with it. It is in the nature of desire to prompt the mind to create a world for its fulfillment. Even a small desire can start a long line of action; what about a strong desire? Desire can produce a universe; its powers are miraculous. Just as a small matchstick can set a huge forest on fire, so does a desire light the fires of manifestation. (…)”

“Desire consumes you, it takes you over. You forget yourself completely. All you can think about is the other, the one you desire, your self is just a fire.”

“Weak desires bring weak results, just as a small amount of fire brings a small amount of heat.”

“… If you work hard enough and assert yourself, and use your mind and imagination, you can shape the world to your desires. (151)”

“What the mind can conceive and believe, and the heart desire, you can achieve.”

“Only when your intent and actions are in alignment can you create the reality you desire.”

“God lives in “want” of nothing. Anything God wants, God can have. Yet God does have desires. It is God’s desire that fuels the engine of creation. It is Divine Desire that powers the universe.”

“(…) Desiring a state of freedom from desire will not set you free. Nothing can set you free, because you are free. See yourself with desireless clarity, that is all.”

“Pain wanders through my bones like a lost fire;
What burns me now? Desire, desire, desire.”

“The ideal universe is a universe so ordered or natured as to allow its inhabitants to understand and dominate it sufficient to satisfy their desires, and inhabited by beings with desires so poised and assorted that there is not only not mutual inhibition of desires, but such a dovetailing and intertwining of the consciousnesses that there is mutual aid in the satisfaction of desire—a universe responsive to the whims of its inhabitants, and inhabited by beings socially harmonious and helpful.”
