Most people experience the truth that, ‘Happiness seems as minute as a grain of barley, while unhappiness seems as huge as a mountain’. Since most people do not know how to attain Anand (Bliss), each tries to acquire at least temporary happiness through the five senses, mind and intellect. However, happiness is temporary and of inferior quality, whereas Anand is eternal and of supreme quality. The science which teaches us how to acquire Anand is termed as the science of Spirituality. Anand is infinitely superior to object pleasure. If this is realised then one will certainly make efforts to acquire Anand instead of object pleasure.
