ਤ੍ਰਿਸਨਾ is the real ਭੁਖ

Gurbani says

ਭੁਖਿਆ ਭੁਖ ਨ ਉਤਰੀ ਜੇ ਬੰਨਾ ਪੁਰੀਆ ਭਾਰ ॥

Bhukhiaa Bhukh N Outharee Jae Bannaa Pureeaa Bhaar ||

The hunger of the hungry departs not, even though they may pile up loads of the world's valuables.

 

Gurbani answers

ਅੰਤਰਿ ਤ੍ਰਿਸਨਾ ਭੁਖ ਹੈ ਮੂਰਖ ਭੁਖਿਆ ਮੁਏ ਗਵਾਰ ॥

Anthar Thrisanaa Bhukh Hai Moorakh Bhukhiaa Mueae Gavaar ||

Within them are desires and cravings and they, the ignorant fools, are starved to death.

Came across this article

Trishna


Desires, the main one being the desire to amass wealth and worldly comforts and material goods.  Desires are the most difficult thing to win over in order to become desireless.  Desiring is a continuous process and never ends.  One after another desires keep on coming in a never ending stream.  They keep on prompting us to do fair and unfair things in order to fulfill them.  There is only one way to eliminate desires and that is to go into a state of Santokh, divine contentment. 

ਬਿਨਾ ਸੰਤੋਖ ਨਹੀ ਕੋਊ ਰਾਜੈ ॥

Without contentment, no one is satisfied.
 279

 Santokh comes only with Naam Simran, Naam Ki Kamai and Bandgi.  Desires are the root cause of all of the problems and will never let our mind go into the mode of peace and contentment.  So please stay focused on  Naam Simran, because only Waheguru can bring peace to our mind and give us Brahamgian.  This is the only way we can win over our own mind.  Winning over the mind is winning over Maya.  Winning over Maya is winning over Panj Doots and desires.  .  The Panj Doots and desires are the highest level of mental sicknesses.   

 “Jo Jo Disey So So Rogi.  Rog Rehat Mera Satgur Jogi.”   

People ask if we give up desires how can we get anything?  The answer is that when we give up everything to Him, then He takes good care of us.  Infact, a stage comes when all of our desires vanish and then He will continue to give us an excellent life and everything we need.  Everything happens according to the divine law of His Hukam and our Karni.  Our destiny is carved based on our Karni according to the mandatory law of the Karma.  So whatever we sow so shall we reap.  If we sow truthful deeds then our future will obviously be bright and shining.  And same way if we sow untruthful deeds then our future will be full of sorrows and pains.  So whenever sorrows and pains come in life that means that we must have done something real stupid at some point of time in space that is why we have to see hardships, pains and sorrows.   If we do have a desire for anything though, please desire only for Naam Simran, just like the Sants who are always and forever absorbed in Waheguru Simran.

ਤ੍ਰਿਸਨਾ ਬੁਝੈ ਹਰਿ ਕੈ ਨਾਮਿ ॥

Desire is quenched, through the Lord's Name.  682
