“Now we must know what is joy is: as it is described in all the scriptures of the world, joy is a state of mind which does not have duality. Like day and night, like happiness and sorrow – it does not have that. It’s a state in which you feel you are beyond all the waves of thought, all the waves of identification, and you start enjoying yourself. This joy that we talk of doesn’t come from matter, nor does it come from your mind; it comes from the Spirit, which is in your heart.” © Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, photo @shantikumai
