Controlling want is a path to liberation. Addressing basic needs every day for health and well being is a path to liberation. Assessing the weight of want is part of daily practice in my life. Looking skeptically at what I perceive as need is also part of my daily practice. Wisdom lies in being able to discern the difference between want and need. Wisdom also lies in realistically measuring the value of each want and perceived need. This process is a key to mindfulness. Once the path is cleared of want and needs are met with practical simplicity, compassion develops more naturally.
