People today believe that they are the body, the senses, etc. and crave for objective pleasures. They convince themselves that this pleasure is wanted by them and under this mistaken notion, they seek to fulfill their cravings. They delude themselves that they can secure bliss by catering to the body and the senses. Such attempts cannot earn bliss. The pleasure obtained from external objects brings grief along with it and such attempts to obtain pleasure is rewarded with disillusionment, defeat and disaster. The three source texts (Upanishads, Brahma Sutras and Bhagavad Gita) clearly call out that YOU are the very embodiment of Ananda (bliss). They help people attain the highest wisdom.
- Sutra Vahini, Chap "Humanity is an embodiment of Bliss".
