Can trying to control the mind also lead to attachment?
OP: Simillary, All we are like to gain a calm and pure mind. So we meditate. Isn't it a desire ?


This is the case if you react with attachment and pleasure when the mind calms down and react with aversion and displease when it does not.

In meditating on should not get attached to the outcome. So regardless of your mind gets calm or not one should be equanimous.

But to meditate one needs the "desire to act" which is not desire per se.
