rascar_normal-365xXx80 The following is from an exchange of tweets between Jetsunma Ahkon Lhamo and one of her followers: Follower: "How can one beat desire?" Jetsunma: "Study cause and result, and especially compassion for all. The desire is for everything and it keeps us suffering like a revolving door. No control over any result, bad." Follower: "So with desire there can't be fulfillment?" Jetsunma: "Exactly. An itch that cannot be scratched. Always returns. And by nature cannot be satisfied. Everything begins and ends."
