Bliss has no counterpart to it. That is the first thing to understand. Pleasure has pain, happiness has unhappiness, but bliss has nothing as a counterpart; it is an organic whole. Gautam the Buddha used to say, \u201cIf you taste the ocean from anywhere, it is salty.\u201d So is the case with the bliss: you can taste it from any corner, from any space, from any direction \u2014 -it is just blissfulness. There is nothing opposite to it. Bliss is the only experience in life which has no polar opposite to it. That\u2019s why, once you are blissful, you cannot fall back. There is no way to be unblissful again. I have tried but nothing succeeds.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
