तासामनादित्वं चाशिषो नित्यत्वात् ॥ ४.१०॥

tāsāmanāditvaṃ cāśiṣo nityatvāt .. 4.10..

10. Thirst for happiness being eternal, desires are without beginning.

Commentary on Sri Patanjali Yogasutra by Swami Vivekananda

All experience is preceded by desire for happiness. There was no beginning of experience, as each fresh experience is built upon the tendency generated by past experience; therefore desire is without beginning.
