Question: Is delight a quality of consciousness or an occasional experience? How can we receive delight?
Sri Chinmoy: Delight is not a quality of consciousness. Consciousness experiences delight on the strength of its aspiration. If we have the real need for delight and if we are ready to cry constantly for it, then we receive delight.
Sri Chinmoy, At the doors of time and delight opportunity knocks, Agni Press, 1974
