From the book The Garland of Guru's Sayings

584. That which exists [sat] itself is consciousness [chit]. The consciousness itself is bliss [ananda]. Deriving pleasure from other things is mere delusion [that is, the pleasure we suppose we derive from other things is illusory, false]. Tell me, except in the clear and real Self-existence, can there be real happiness in the imaginary sense-objects?
