What

is the meaning of ‘Ceiling on Desires’? People become deluded by

unlimited desires, and live in a dream world. It is most important to

keep one's desires under control, to put a ceiling on them. People are

spending too much money. Instead of spending inordinately for their own

pleasure, one should be spending for the relief of the poor and the

needy. This is the meaning of the ‘Ceiling on Desires’ programme. Do

not make the mistake of thinking that giving away money is all that is

needed, giving away to others while allowing your own desires to

continue to multiply. Curtail your desires, for materialistic desires

lead to a restless and disastrous life. Desires are a prison. One can

be freed only by limiting one’s wants.
