Engraved memory is hindrance to the fulfillment of our life. We have in ourselves bank of desires which consists of our current desires and borrowed desires. Trusting our needs is powerful. Fulfilling our needs will take away one every negative aspect of our life- continuous irritation. The constant irritation that we carry from morning till night is the gift of our borrowed desires. If our energy, our inner space is centered on our needs we will not be carrying the constant irritation that we carry now. In the whole world there are only two kinds of people, people whose inner space is centered on needs and people whose inner space is centered on borrowed desires.
