Question: Is delight experienced automatically when one has reached a certain degree of refinement or expansion of consciousness, or a certain height of consciousness? If not, what is it that precipitates this state of delight?

Sri Chinmoy: No matter what degree of refinement we have achieved, we cannot experience delight in its pristine beauty and immortality. It is through expanding and heightening our consciousness that we experience delight. We can precipitate the experience of delight only by increasing our unconditional self-giving and our conscious feeling that the Supreme loves us infinitely more than we love ourselves.
