Desires and enjoyment
There is no problem in desiring. What matters is that it should not lead you away from your true Self. Vedic wisdom does not give a list of do's and donts'. All it says is that always remember your true Self - "Know Thy Self". In our journey to know Consciousness, we should give more importance to intellect and be in the state of awareness , rather than sink in the ocean of mind waves. Always being aware of our true self and doing actions of enjoyment of senses will not cause problems, sufferings and pain. Only when we lose awareness of our self we end up accidents in life.
Like driving a car
While driving a car, it is not a bad idea to listen to music or talk to fellow passengers. You will end up in a head on collision only when you lose the awareness that you are driving a car. You can enjoy music or talk while driving but never give up the awareness of driving. Similarly there is no problem in enjoying the senses of pleasures. Only when we indulge in the sensual pleasures forgetting our Self, we end up in pain and suffering.
Pain and suffering comes then as big accidents. Before that there will be a forewarning like a police cop giving us a ticket for bad driving. If we ignore that we will then end up in serious consequences. Similarly we will get warning from our own Awareness and if we ignore that, we will then confront with dire consequences.
Whatever actions we perform if we are always aware of our true Self, then we are free from pain and suffering. If not, the evolutionary force or nature (our own awareness) will force us to with pain and suffering.
To reiterate, there is nor problem in enjoying the sensual pleasures but not at the cost of forgetting the real Self of us, like listening to music and talking while driving a car without losing awareness of driving.
Spiritual practices and abstinence
But in spiritual practices we are asked to abstain because we have lost the awareness of the Self, like a driving instructor asking the student driver to abstain from listening to music and talking. Once we learn car driving then we can even hold the steering in one little finger and drive. Life will be that easy and fun when we become aware of our real self.

Why there is Suffering?
Why do we have suffering in the world?. Especially in human life there are so many disasters apart from natural calamities. There are accidents, life threatening diseases, loss of wealth, loss of relationship, death of loved ones and many more. In some time of our life or the other we undergo lots of hardships and some times we under go terrible sufferings mentally and physically.
If we use the emotional mind and seek answers we will never find one. But using the intellect our spiritual masters tell that suffering pushes us to move forward in our evolutionary process to complete our journey. All the sufferings gives a push to remove our tamas (laziness) to move forward. It is like a student getting punishments to study well. Similarly Some receive very hard blow and some small, depending upon their tamasic nature. Punishments are not for sadistic reasons but to drive the student to seek knowledge and so are we getting sufferings and pain so that we seek the light of intellect and awareness, which leads us to realize our true Self.
The below figure explains the reason for all suffering and pain in a nutshell. When we go away from the light of intellect and awareness we end up in suffering and pain and when we go more closer towards this inner light we experience bliss. If we suffer from body and mental diseases then we have gone too much in seeking sensual pleasures. We have tortured our body and mind to the extent that the natural laws have been violated and so ends up in a chaos which is called as disease. Then the mental and physical pain is to set us in the right direction. We will undergo this process until we learn it proper.
This applies to even a financial problem in life. When we live a life towards sensual seeking pleasures only and go beyond our means ,we end up in crisis. The Ego instead of enjoying the wealth ends up in "show off's" because of pride and ends up in deep trouble.
"If you are confronted with a health problem, ask yourself:
"Have I abused my body?"
If you are confronted with a financial problem, ask yourself:
"Have I lived within my means?"
If you are faced with a psychological problem, ask yourself:
"Have I been as loving as God would want me to be?"
What you do in the present creates the future, so use the present to create a wonderful future. - Peace pilgrim (please Click here to know about peace pilgrim)
In summary all negatives thoughts pull towards the direction of Ego and pain and so we undergo suffering and pain in life. So bring out positive thoughts in life and create a blissful life. Your thoughts are responsible for the suffering and bliss in life.
Does this mean we should not enjoy life and give up all desires in life?
No.

The Human Error
The only greatest error of man is that after reaching this highest state of evolution to complete the journey, he or she is strangled in the world. This is because of the wrong use of the intellect. Instead of moving towards awareness to get to the state of consciousness (Self-Realization), man has used to go the opposite direction of the mind towards sense objects. Because of this attitude we keep undergoing the same rebirth and death cycle to fulfill our desires.
Evolution is a forward process. It is natural law that any inhibition will be fought against and move towards freedom. Since evolution progressed as a result of unfavorable survival conditions overcoming inhibitions, we also try to overcome life short comings through constant fight. But we are meeting failures because of the the lack of correct understanding about life. We are not here to extend the length of our lifespan and enjoy the sensual world, instead we are to complete our destination, Journey to the Source.
When we fail to move forward, then nature itself pushes us giving us hard lessons in life. Then in this struggle only the intelligent survives. Evolution is a process driven with the power of "Survival of fittest". Who survives? The one with more intellect which can use its body power to withstand hardships and challenges and which can adapt to all hostile conditions and not to yield to the environment. The design of the evolution is already destined and the question of free will emerges gradually emerges but is well established in human only. Rest of the beings are sort of pre-programmed. But human have free will, the choice making freedom and has the choice to time his final destination to Source. Instead of using our free will to reach the final destination the way we want, we are misusing the free will to being stagnated in the sensory world.

Survival of Intellect
Charles Darwin in the west , gave the concept of Survival of fittest, the driving force for evolution. That was a mile stone in the progress of Biology in modern science. Evolutionary theory made perfect sense when we see the biology of life. Life evolved from single cell organism to multi-cellular and finally man. The evolution was not a random process. The organism self designs through the inherent intellect because we have discussed that all knowledge comes from the field of awareness. Intelligence in the first organism that arose was expressed at higher dimensions as it evolved. It is an intelligent design but here we mean that there was not someone who was designing it external to the organism.
No one externally designs, the organism has the power to design itself and evolve challenging the hostile conditions in the environment. Vedanta says the micro-organism is also the manifestation of the Supreme Consciousness, the Brahman. Therefore the cell has all the source of intelligence inherent in it. With that intelligence it can evolve further. That inherent evolution is still continuing in human.
Vedas tell that man has progressed through 84 million species. This is what birth and re-birth means. A bacteria through numerous rebirths and death has attained the state of man. The man is the last state to get free from this cycle of re-birth and death, because of his and her highly developed intellect.
