Ananda 1 - The Boundless Bliss Poem by Geeta Radhakrishna Menon

Ananda 1 - The Boundless Bliss

Rating: 5.0


Ananda - The boundless bliss
Flowing like a river
Into the terrain of pure bliss,
Unending pleasure,
Undying happiness,
Unbelievable state of joy!

Greater than a kingdom on earth,
Happier than a seat in heaven,
Cooler than a twilight moon,
Sweeter than any sweet nectar,
Cosier than a lover's embrace,
Is Ananda! The undefinable mirth!

Ananda! , ! The Indescribable delight!
Beyond doubts and disturbances,
Above all confusions and connivance,
There are no questions to be asked
Nor any queries to be answered;
There is only the illumination of infinite joy.

And all you describe, Geeta, within a moment! But a moment that ripples into our everyday, a moment like an anchor. -Glen

's spiritual grace is infinite and eternally we perceive this. The indescribable delight that we perceive in silence in trance is amazing. Bliss is very peaceful to achieve in spiritual excellence. This is definitely an outstanding poem...10
