"What you are basically, deep, deep down, far, far in, is simply the fabric and structure of existence itself. So, say in Hindu mythology, they say that the world is the drama of God. God is not something in Hindu mythology with a white beard that sits on a throne, that has royal prerogatives. God in Indian mythology is the self, Satcitananda. Which means sat, that which is; chit, that which is consciousness; that which is ananda is bliss. In other words, what exists, reality itself, is gorgeous— it is the fullness of total joy."
Alan Watts
