In this episode, The Bearded Mystic Podcast 5th chapter of the Bhagavad Gita, specifically verses 20 - 24. Sri Krishna explains how the person that is established in the knowledge of Brahman becomes the same in quality as Brahman too. They are one and the same - therefore they never get over-excited or overly disappointed. Sri Krishna explains how eternal happiness is found in getting the mind united with Brahman. Arjuna is reminded that material pleasures have a finite existence and therefore, he must always discern so he doesn't get trapped in the cycle of seeking pleasure. Sri Krishna is telling us that we can achieve a steady state of happiness in this life itself and it can be practically done if we look into the causes of our desires and anger. Ecstasy and self-illumination become the way of the Sage. They are full of joy, brimming to the top with happiness. They understand they are one and the same in essence as Brahman, this Pure Awareness.
