Since desire is eternally expanding, you need this (emotions) to locate yourself in the moment.

Also I feel one has distinct emotional setpoints linked to many 'subjects' qued up in your focus.
I was wondering whether I should revive this thread regarding what then, people use to steer their lives by.
As you state this, I reckon that you interpret 'desires' as something 'divine'?
