How can we be looking for something which is always existent? That is completely redundant. Perhaps we are looking for the realization of that always existent satisfaction, that would make sense to me. However, why should things stop at satisfaction? Why must satisfaction be opposed to desire? The whole circle is self-defeating, and frankly, in my opinion, is not in any ways expressive of the reality of humans.
The truth is we are not looking for anything, it is only the looking that determines what we see. You see that all is about satisfaction because you are enthralled by the idea of desires. I see satisfaction as but one petal on the flower of light and life. Is the only fulfillment that which is devoid of all striving or is that idea itself a rejection of the effort of striving? If all is well in all moments then any claim of slavery, authority or control is completely baseless and in this way I find you continually undermine your own apparently core message. You perhaps miss that all slavery begins with the self by the self.
My point being, you have answered your own question before you have asked it. Can you remember the first question you ever asked in the entirety of your life, of your being? What was the first question of the Creator?
