pleasures

All physical pleasures arise on the surface of the body and are experienced by the mind through the nervous system. You love the outer pleasures of the senses because you happened to be captured by them first, and then you remained their prisoner. Even as some people get used to jail, so we mortals like the outward pleasures, which shut off the joys from within
Understand and feel the superior joys of the inner life, and you will prefer them to the fleeting pleasures of the outer world.
