The Infinite alone is happiness

Nalpe sukham asti bhumaiva sukham.

 

In the finite there is no happiness.

The Infinite alone is happiness.

 

 

Commentary.

 

“Anything that is finite cannot embody happiness, not to speak of lasting Delight. The finite embodies pleasure, which is not true happiness. The Infinite embodies true divine happiness in infinite measure, and, at the same time, it reveals and offers to the world at large its own Truth, its own Wealth.”

 

- Sri Chinmoy
