"Satisfaction of what?"
"Satisfaction of their desires."
"Their desires for what?"
"Their desires for satisfaction."
"Satisfaction of what?"
"Their desires."
"For what?"
"For satisfaction"—etc., ad infinitum.
It's only about satisfaction in the end. That is all we are looking for and it can be found right now.
Except that satisfaction is found in the play out of desire. The flow of desire is literally the feeling of life, or prana, coursing through you.
You can try to short circuit, or overcome the pathway of desire and skip to the satisfaction part, but as Ra explained, "The reason it is unwise to overcome is that overcoming is an unbalanced action creating difficulties in balancing in the time/space continuum. Overcoming thus creates the further environment for holding onto that which apparently has been overcome."
"[...] this very control potentiates and necessitates the further incarnative experience in order to balance this control or repression of that self which is perfect."
