But in svábhávika dharma the intensity of sukham is limited, while in Bhágavata dharma it is beyond any measure, it is ananta. As a man thinks, Nálpe sukhamasti Bhúmaeva sukham [“One does not get infinite happiness from limited objects; one gets it only from something infinite”]. One can be satisfied with Bhágavata dharma alone.|source=Shrii Shrii Anandamurti}} | ||
Anandamurti starts the discourse by saying that Dharma can be separated into two categories: ''svábhávika dharma'' (pertaining to the sustenance of the body) and Bhágavata dharma (longing for infinite happiness). Human beings are different from animals in their ability to achieve unlimited happiness (''ananta''). Anandamurti then explains that ''Bhágavata dharma'' consists of four elements: ''Paramátmá'' (this quality is only attributed to the Supreme Consciousness) ), ''vistára'' (expansion), ''rasa'' (cosmic flow) and ''sevá'' (service). Anandamurti goes on saying that service is of two types: external service (physical, martial, economic and intellectual service) and internal service (directing the mind toward the Supreme goal in meditation).<ref name="AV33"/> | Anandamurti starts the discourse by saying that Dharma can be separated into two categories: ''svábhávika dharma'' (pertaining to the sustenance of the body) and Bhágavata dharma (longing for infinite happiness).
