Guest guest Posted December 19, 2005 Report Share Posted December 19, 2005 derived from sensory objects arises and vanishes with time. For instance, when hunger is appeased, there is happiness for that moment; but this happiness ebbs away after a while. This is true of all objects in the world; the joy derived from them is evanescent. Man, however, is after lasting Ananda (bliss). He is in fact the embodiment of bliss. Bliss constitutes his very nature and being. Why, then, does he not experience it? This is because, unaware of his true nature, he is obsessed with the external world and fails to experience the bliss within him. He mistakenly imagines that the source of joy lies in the phenomenal world.- Baba Thought for the day as written at Prasanthi Nilayam today20th December 2005 Do You ?
