'''The absolute happiness or the perpetual happiness or the greatest happiness is that which is enjoyed by supernatural senses.'''

'''[[Vanisource:Room Conversation -- January 17, 1971, Allahabad|Room Conversation -- January 17, 1971, Allahabad]]:'''

Guest (1): In God's temple, what human wants? And what type of life he wants so that he can be happy?

Prabhupāda: Not upon that. You spread separately. You have no bed sheet? Bed sheet you can spread. The human demand is happiness.

Guest (1): Happiness, yes. But happiness means increase in which is already happy. It is...

Prabhupāda: Yes. Now, the thing is, what is that happiness? That is stated in the Bhagavad-gītā. Sukham ātyantikaṁ yat tad atīndriya-grāhyam: [Bg. 6.21] "The absolute happiness or the perpetual happiness or the greatest happiness is that which is enjoyed by supernatural senses."

'''There is absolute happiness. You do not know that. We are meant for that, because we are living beings. '''

=== 1975 Conversations and Morning Walks ===

'''[[Vanisource:Morning Walk -- May 9, 1975, Perth|Morning Walk -- May 9, 1975, Perth]]:'''

Amogha: I saw some asses in the university yesterday. Asses and monkeys. One professor was working so hard he was almost crying, because he had so many exams to mark. So great burden on his mind.

Paramahaṁsa: Isn't it, then, if one is happy, that's all that counts? If his happiness is also relative. So if I am a monkey...

Prabhupāda: No. There is absolute happiness. You do not know that. We are meant for that, because we are living beings. But on account of your ass quality you do not like to understand. Mūḍhā nābhijānāti.

Amogha: My parents used to tell me that nothing can be absolutely true, because everything is really finer shades of grey.

Prabhupāda: He has no idea what is absolute truth. He is in darkness. He does not know there is absolute world. This is the relative worlds.
