Paramananda (Hinduism)

ParamAnanda is a Sanskrit word meaning "supreme bliss". It is often used to describe an experience of great joy and peace in Hinduism, the ancient Indian spiritual tradition. In Hinduism, it is believed that when a person passes away, they will enter into this state of extreme joy and contentment, known as paramAnanda. This idea is related to the concept of Moksha, or liberation from the cycle of life, death, and rebirth. ParamAnanda is a state of ultimate bliss or joy that can be experienced while still in the body.
