Sri Yukteswar is one of my favorites and his book, The Holy Science, is definitely worth reading.

The subject of "unfulfilled desire" is quite intriguing. The Sufi Master, Hazrat Inayat Khan, is quoted (The Message of Our Time, by his son Pir Vilayat Khan): "If you tell yourself that you do not desire anything, you go back. The whole ceation is the result of desire. The purpose of creation, therefore, must be the fulfillment of this desire".
