DESIRES when arising instantly create a sense of deficiency in you. Before the desire arose you were not deficient.
DESIRES when continuing there is pain continuing of labour, efforts, uncertainty, running against time, competition, envy, centralisation, fear of failure, tensions, anxieties ....
DESIRES when fulfilled - more desires will arise instantly Simultaneously pride, greed, dishonesty, envy, injustice and falsehood also arise, ego baloons and there arises an anxiety /worry for 'maintaining what you have got' ! On the top of it, with whatever you get "connected" with- as fulfillment of desires- starts "disconnecting" from you from the very moment of connection itself ! Come On ! Then, you get only that which MUST leave you !! You are back to square one in all cases.
DESIRES when not fulfilled- pain increase geometrically- from deficiency, uncertainty, loss of energy/efforts/ time to .... frustration, failure, depression, hatred, jeolosy, loss of confidence, humiliation, blaming, cursing the time/luck/others , ... And to what not ?
And then also worldly things do not stay with you. If they stay, you don't stay. Disconnection with them is a MUST. You never never become owners of them. Ownership is assumed never the actual.
STRANGELY, we all feel, that we get pleasure by 'fulfillment of desires" ! FACT IS that fulfillment of desires do not get you pleasure, the 'relinquishment' ( tyaag) of desires by mind gets you pleasure (peace) !!
Sadhaks may note that various laws, principles relating to "desires" as stated in Gita or as so benevolently discovered and explained by Swamiji Ramsukhdasji Maharaj are absolutely scientific, logical and universally applicable. Hence there is no dearth or absence of "scientific " yardsticks in His theories, laws, principles etc. They appeal to logic and soul. They are part of your daily experiences. They are tested, experienced, and proven laws/principles. They get confirmed by Shruti, Yukti and Anubhuti yardsticks also.
Hence one can fearlessly strive for 'extinguishment of desires'. In the end one has to 'extinguish' them only.... no body has ever been able to 'fulfill' them. No body...In the words of Swamiji .. Desire of even the 'baap' (father) of Lord Rama was not fulfilled !! There is no provision made for it ... !
