Krishna: Absolute Joy

by Ravi Shankar

The sole search of every being, soul, is joy. Wherever one is searching, whatever one is searching for, one is looking for joy. Whether it is spiritual or material, whether it is in the movies, bars, or in the churches or temples, whether it is money, fame, or power, the search simply is for joy. And the Divine is all joy. The Divine is existence, consciousness, and bliss or joy.

This is a short transcript that Sri Sri Ravi Shankar has had as he travels around the world meeting with individuals and groups of all kinds. While short, the dialogue reveals profound and practical insights that have been helpful to millions of people.
