Spiritual Life Is Full Of Enjoyment - Prabhupada 0697



660523 - Lecture BG 03.13-16 - New York

Now, if by doing that yajña, if we become free from all reactions, then why should we not do it? Why should we not do it? There is no difficulty. There is no question of difficulty. Rather, it is a thing of pleasure, ānanda. The whole thing is ānanda. Ānanda means pleasure, enjoyment.

Spiritual life does not mean that void of enjoyment. No. It is full of enjoyment. We are seeking after enjoyment, but that enjoyment is hampered by our material existence. We do not know. We are trying to squeezing out the senses and trying to have material pleasure. This is nonsense. Because we do not know what is spiritual life.
