' Desires for objects, persons, and enjoyment '...

Actually, this ocean of samsara does not exist.

It is only your
desires and when they subside there is nothing which has ever
existed.

If you know this ocean is dreadful and filled with
alligators and sharks this is enough.

These alligators are your
desires for objects, for persons,

for some enjoyment!

Once you
forget them you are very safe.
