Dear Rick,
You sound more than a little depressed. I think getting some endorphins
activated by doing some exercise would be helpful.

Well, my take is that when we desire something and/or are attached to it, we
fight against the natural flow of things. That doesn't mean we can't *enjoy*
living, however!

It is simply the acceptance of being.
>Is "desire" and "sensual desire" the same thing ?
I would say no.

I would stop meditating for a while and get physically active. Let K energy
do the work for you.

simply going out for a walk.
