Below is the description of bliss,Samadhi being the Sanskrit word .

Samadhi (Sanskrit: समाधि) in Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism and yogic schools is a higher level of concentrated meditation, or dhyāna. In the yoga tradition, it is the eighth and final limb identified in the Yoga Sūtras of Pata�jali.


Prabhupada samadhiIt has been described as a non-dualistic state of consciousness in which the consciousness of the experiencing subject becomes one with the experienced object,[1] and in which the mind becomes still, one-pointed or concentrated[2] while the person remains conscious. In Buddhism, it can also refer to an abiding in which mind becomes very still but does not merge with the object of attention, and is thus able to observe and gain insight into the changing flow of experience.

Loong's comment: Bliss is your mind is quieter than silence,emptier than emptiness.It is attained when one detaches from attachments,cravings, fetters..
As you can see it is close to enlightenment.It can be also attained byYoga.

So bliss to you all

To all,

One of my shortcomings is thinking that all people are at the same level of awareness of spirituality and come up with texts,
that sometimes are too advanced ,for a beginner.

For this I apologise.Also I do not want to say ,that i am more advanced than others.So from now on.my texts will be simpler.
Instead of quoting Masters .I will use my simple words ,being a
simple person.

Bliss is a subject that everyone should ponder about.It is such a place to be,accessible to all humans,by doing the right things.

May it be through the living fully your religion,i meen fully.
Also Meditation,also living a life filled with love ,compassion , and loving kindness.Ridding oneself of critiscism and loving the universe.

With loving Kindness

"living a life filled with love, compassion, and loving kindness. Ridding oneself of critiscism and loving the universe."

Beautiful words to live by that anyone can strive for. Thank you, Loong.

We are all on different paths and levels of awareness. As long as we are committed to living the best we can and nurturing our spirit within, we will continue to learn and grow.

Peace.....
