Desires.

Gosh I am so grateful my Ancestor's had desires, I prefer to live in a house rather than a cave.
In Buddhism desires are not the problem, it's attachments to desires that cause suffering.


Attachment is “dö chag” in Tibetan, which means “sticky desire”. There is a stickiness, neediness, dependency, and self-centeredness associated with attachments. Desires can and do benefit others.
