What is Bliss

Bliss is our essential nature!

Bliss is limitless, unconditional, timeless, immutable, formless, objectless, unfathomable and indescribable.

If we wanted to use some words to describe bliss (which can’t really describe bliss) they could be.

PEACE, SILENCE, FULLNESS, FREEDOM, BEAUTY!

It can be experienced fully by a pure, sattvic mind that rests effortlessly in its essential nature!

Similarly the knowers of the Self (Atman) are fully aware that the infinite bliss of Atman shines unobscured and unlimited during all the three periods of time and all the three states of experience. The bliss of Brahman cannot be adequately expressed in words. It has to be felt and realised through direct Self-realisation. Though we experience it, it is not an experience like the enjoyment of an object, because you are then an embodiment of bliss itself.

🌺 Peace, Love, Harmony
