How does desire behave?



य एष सुप्तेषु जागर्ति कामं
कामं पुरुषो निर्मिमाणः

Ye Esha suptEShu jaagarti kaamam
Kaamam puruShO nirmimaaNaH

Shloka Meaning:
Even when one is sleeping, Kaama (Desire) is awake
However, Kaama is created by the beings

Sri Bhagavadpada, when he is writing the Brahmasutra Bhashyam mentions that the desire in any being will be there whether they are sleeping or awake and he further adds that the desires are due to certain ambitions created around it by the beings and they stick to it knowingly or unknowingly to gain something and get personal.
