The Happiness of the Psyche & the Bliss of the Being
by Atman Nityananda /lkn
There is the happiness of Sattva at the levels of the psyche and Anandamaya Kosha (sheath) and the Ananda (bliss) of the Being (Atman, Brhaman, Sat-Chit-Ananda is the nature of the Being).
Obviously, at the level of the psyche, happiness and sadness are constantly alternating due to the conditioning of our mind and external situations. Happiness and sadness are different vibratory frequencies of the vital psychic energy.
However, the Divine essence (Self) is always the same, immutable and infinite Ananda (bliss), Freedom and Fullness.
We do not experience them due to the continuous flow of thought in the mind and the mental and emotional agitation that cover like energetic clouds the ever-present bliss of our divine essence.
Therefore, the only way to experience the peace and fullness of our divine essence is to keep as much as we can the mind (mental and emotional level) calm, quiet and centered in the inner silent space of Consciousness.
Read about happiness and the three Gunas in the following post of Sri Aurobindo: Happiness and the Three Gunas
