Ananda is not so easy to understand or to attain through ordinary material techniques. Only when the duality of the subject (seeker) and the object () ceases to exist in the light of intense devotion, this can be experienced. The poem unfolds another aspect of spiritual delight. Thanks, Geeta ji, for sharing the poem.

A precious poem so brilliantly penned! The spiritual grace of this poem is heart touching: To pursue only the path of devotion/To serve with selfless motives/To open up to the will of /To realize the oneness of creation/Through sympathy and empathy/Only then, can you achieve Ananda! .......You have eloquently depicted the great ideals propounded by the highly evolved souls or Yogis....Thanks for sharing....10.

On the title, Geeta, indeed words fail, seem paltry, to describe the deep, profound, and life-altering experiences of touching us. The word pure is used to render one of the beatitudes of Jesus, as in Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see. The meaning of the word, as I understand it, is not that the person is free of sin (for no one is such) but rather pure in the sense of focus, of wanting. Nothing like life’s troubles and heartbreaks to prepare our hearts’ soil, no? -Glen
