The Bible describes the divine bliss thus,
"Joy is an internal
happiness, it comes into the hearts of all true believers.
It dwells in the heart and is not transitory like other worldly
sensual pleasures. Lord's joy is perfect; it keeps filling
up cups of our hearts till they overflow. His joy that flows
in our hearts can overflow to the hearts of others as well.”
Lord Krishna has explained thoroughly this Divine joy in the
Bhagwat Gita thus: "When
the soul is no longer attached to external contacts (objects)
one finds the happiness that is in the Self. Such a one who
is self-controlled in Yoga on God (Brahma) enjoys undying
bliss" (B.G. 5:21)
"The yogi of subdued
mind, ever keeping himself thus harmonized, attains to peace,
the supreme nirvana, which abides in Me". (B.G. 6:15)
"That in which he finds this supreme delight, perceived
by the intelligence and beyond the reach of the senses,
wherein established, he no longer falls away from the truth"
(B.G. 6:21) "For supreme happiness comes to the yogin
whose mind is peaceful, whose passions are at rest, who
is stainless and has become one with God". (B.G. 6:27)
"Thus making the self ever harmonized the yogin, who
has put away sin,experiences easily the infinite bliss of
contact with the Eternal" (B.G. 6:28)
