143. Craving is the root of all sorrow,

and the only intelligent way

is to renounce all cravings completely

and not to indulge them.

Even as fire burns all the more fiercely when fed with fuel,

thoughts multiply by thinking:

thoughts cease only by the extinction of thinking.

The above Yoga Vasistha quote is from the book

The Seven Steps to Awakening.
