Pleasure : Full and Unbounded

Pleasure is obtained when a desire is fully satisfied and for a desire, there has to be a visual stimuli. Nature of such stimuli depends on pleasure-full experiences of the past. Once a desire is satisfied through some visual scene, recurrence of such a scene works as a stimulus for a fresh desire. This visual recurrence need not be factual always, it may even be imagined by the subject. For example, if a beautiful thing has provided pleasure to a person, whenever he/she visually imagines that thing, a desire is aroused in her/is mind for seeking the pleasure again. However, the visual imagination does not provide pleasure for which factual presence of the thing of pleasure has to be there.

Since, satisfaction of a desire is limited and measured in terms of the subject’s imagination of satisfaction, the pleasure is full when the imagined level of satisfaction is arrived. But the practice may go beyond that imagination due to circumstantial factors, this provides pleasure of unbounded excellence. For example, you have a mate for the night and have certain notions of getting pleasure from his/her company. In practice, you find that the mate is more artistic than you had imagined, this provides unbounded pleasure to you

Brain not only has a positive role in pleasure, its negative role is also involved in providing pleasure. The brain has a vigilance function for the body which keep on informing the person what not to do under given circumstances. While seeking pleasures, this vigilant function of mind is often blocked. For example, our mind inhibits us from eating anything having saliva of some other person. But while kissing during a sex-play, this inhibition is forgotten and the two intermix their saliva to the maximum possible extent.

In females, it has been found, that there is a widespread neural power failure while under influence of sexual arousal. In such a condition, they know no inhibitions. For this reason, once a desire is aroused in a woman, it is almost impossible to subsist without its full satisfaction.
