Taittiriya Upanishad 2.7.1 meaning
raso vai sah
rasam hy-ev-ayam labdhvanandee bhavati
रसो वै सः ।
रसं ह्येवायं लब्ध्वाऽऽनन्दी भवति ॥
That reality is pure sweetness, the very essence of joy. Only by finding that essence does anyone become truly happy.
What it means
Every small pleasure — music, food, love — is a drop from a larger source of sweetness. Real happiness comes from tasting that source directly, not from collecting more and more drops.हिंदी में अर्थ
वह परम सत्य ही रस है, आनंद का सार। उसी रस को पाकर कोई सच में आनंदित होता है।
हर छोटा सुख — संगीत, भोजन, प्रेम — उसी बड़े रस की एक बूँद है। सच्चा आनंद उस स्रोत को चखने में है, बूँदें जमा करने में नहीं।
