The Journey Through Fire – Why Desire Burns Us

Desire throws us into the fire.But the fire does not exist to destroy us—It exists to purify us and return us to the Divine.

This sentence holds one of life’s deepest paradoxes. As long as we live, we desire. We long for love, recognition, security, success. At first, desire seems like a driving force—fueling ambition, creating movement, giving color to our lives. But over time, we come to realize that desire often brings burning pain.

No matter how much we attain, something still aches.

Why is that?Because desire is never truly satisfied.Once one desire is fulfilled, another arises.This endless loop feels like throwing ourselves into the fire again and again.

But this fire isn’t here just to hurt us.It is a sacred fire.It burns away our false identities—our attachments, our illusions, our endless chasing.Desire binds us, yes,but it also offers us a path to liberation—if we’re willing to look deeper.

The more fully we experience desire,the more we begin to see that no external object, no future outcome,can ever truly fulfill the longing within.That realization does not come through suppression, but through deep engagement—through letting desire burn in our awareness without clinging to it.

This leads to a state of lightness.Desire still arises,but we no longer identify with it.We see it, we smile at it,and we let it pass like wind through open hands.Life becomes a dance again—a game,not a prison of craving.

And then one day,as desire burns completely through,it leaves behind only one thing:Rapture.

Not a fleeting pleasure or peak emotional high,but a still, sacred ecstasy—a vibration in which the soul merges with something infinitely vast and tender.It is a state where the boundaries between self and spirit dissolve.

Rapture is not about possessing anything.It is what remains when there is nothing left to desire.It is the essence of your being,stripped bare,and radiant with divine presence.

Desire does not come to destroy you.It comes to dissolve everything that is not truly you.It comes to return you—not to what you want—but to what you have always been:Divine.
