“Spiritual seekers often have numerous imperfections that could be called spiritual lust—not because the lust is spiritual but because it proceeds from spiritual things. Never content with what they experience, they continually look to hear sermons and talks, read books, learn maxims. Peevish and unhappy, they strive after the superficial while neglecting genuine spiritual practice.”

John of the Cross 1542 – 1591 CE via Shan Dao
