saananda = sa+aananda Ananda m. happiness , joy , enjoyment , sensual pleasure RV. AV. VS. R. Ragh. &c. ; m. and (%{am}) n. `" pure happiness "' , one of the three attributes of A1tman or Brahman in the Veda1nta philosophy Veda1ntas. &c NB: in principle "saananda" might also be sandhi for "sa+ananda", but that doesn't seem very likely in this connection, because: ananda mfn. joyless , cheerless ; (%{As}) m. pl.N. of a purgatory Up. [25,2] So, we gots to keep in mind that "a-nanda" is actually opposite of "aa-nanda"! :D > > asaMprajñâta > > saMprajñâta-sasmitâ (sâsmitâ?) > > nirbîja-samâdhi > > dharma-megha-samâdhi >
