An intelligent person cannot go on desiring. His very intelligence is enough and desiring disappears — not that he renounces, remember. Only fools renounce. Intelligent people don’t renounce the world. They live in the world, but they live intelligently, without desiring. Whatsoever comes on their way they enjoy, but they don’t hanker for anything. Their sleep remains undisturbed; they don’t dream for anything. They don’t project for the future, they live in the present.
