The Force called Desire
From one perspective, the lowest common denominator of life is Zero expectation; implying Zero desire. Desire is the very source and force that drives human thought and related mischief.
Zero expectation is one of the most self revealing and enriching force of life that can only be experienced from within and not intellectualized.

Desire triggers and drives thought. Consequently, if a thought needs to be stopped in the mind, it is essential to eliminate desire, related attachments and its sprawling roots.
Meditation without any desires and expectations ( अनासक्त भावसे ध्यान ) is a self enlightening process for experiencing the eternal Truth of being and becoming integral with our very natural Source.
I am not aware of the core message of a renowned novel written by Tennessee Williams titled “ A Streetcar named Desire “. I have not read it as yet because I am a Gypsy wanderer !
As a traditional Gypsy, I stay in any one place only for a limited time and not get attached to its sprawling roots.
