Joy

Joy is when Spirit touches the body and mind
with a glimpse of the Infinite.
-Keith G. Lowenstein

The Supreme is Joy itself.
-Anandamayi Ma

Your inherent nature is joy, ananda, which is eternal.
-Vishnudevananda

When a little bubble of joy appears in your sea of consciousness
take hold of it and keep expanding it.
Meditate on it and it will grow larger.
Keep puffing at the bubble until it breaks its confining walls
and becomes a sea of joy.
-Yogananda

When one has real inner joy,
one sees that Heaven is all around Him.
He is in Heaven or he has become Heaven itself.
-Sri Chinmoy

Don't worry about being disloyal to your pain
by being joyous.
-Pir Vilayat Inayat Khan
