Sat is true knowing.

In that state you are knowing.

Yeah there is true knowing of chit,

The being.

Who really am I?

You find the answer to that question when you look inwards.

The true knowing of that quietness,

The awareness,

The being.

Yeah that is bliss.

That's what he experienced yesterday.

He was like,

He was just happy.

He could not point out why he was happy.

That is the true ananda that does not come from an external thing that I think always,

Oh this samsara should give me ananda.

But he experienced just being there.

In fact he felt,

What did you say?

When thoughts were coming you were like why am I thinking?

It's only spoiling it more.

Yeah so just knowing of being is ananda.

It's different from this material world.

Happiness that you get from acquiring things and knowing people,

Becoming rich,

Name,

Fame.

There is a higher level of happiness that does not come from receiving.

That just comes from resting.

Yeah the knowing of being is ananda,

Is happiness.
