The place of pleasure

Q: Why is the mind pursuing pleasure all the time?

Why do people deny pleasure, feel guilty or resist it?

Pleasure begins at the very root of memory.

There is the delight of a sunset. Remembrance of it encourages continuity of the delight which is over.

What place has pleasure, joy and love with regard to memory? Is love a memory?

Why does the mind demand repetition?

Thought is the response of memory, and in itself brings fragmentation. As long as the mind lives in that area there is no freedom.

Is there any field where thought has no place at all?

Can the mind be aware totally and not fragmentarily?

If you really don't know, you will have the answer.
