Sri Ananda Rasa
The Sri Ananda Rasa is a sacred dance (the Sanskrit word rasa means dance) created to further enrich the Sri Ananda Mantra. This mantra and dance are dedicated to the value of Ananda, a value that has many meanings, but is usually translated as grace, being blessed, or experiencing inner joy and love. You can attach many meanings to the concept of Ananda, as long as they somehow articulate that they bring you closer to the experience of blessed, inner happiness. It has to do with becoming aware of your inner wealth. Ananda encompasses an inner wealth that belongs to everyone's humanity. An inner richness that everyone carries with them because they exist and are part of creation and the richness from which that creation springs.
The sensitive sounds of the music and the devotional movements of the dance allow you to honor and discover the most beautiful thing you know as a human being, Ananda, so that you can truly celebrate the happiness it carries. Ananda is the seat of your inner happiness and is connected to the love of your heart and the devotion to life that comes from it. The Sri Ananda Mantra is an ode to these blissful blessings of the spiritual heart of life, as expressed in this statement: “Life is the natural flow of longing to allow the light within you to nourish and heal you, to truly answer you, to bless you, to make you joyful, to free you from the darkness, and to be together, to live together, to be happy together, both with the resulting openness and with your true radiant nature.”
The Sri Ananda Mantra is not intended to satisfy your need for happiness from the outside, but it offers you a way to indicate from within that you long to freely experience the precious and joyful wholeness of who you are. By repeating the mantra, you are expressing your longing and willingness to open yourself to the value of Ananda, beyond your self-needs and your tendency to want happiness as a form of success and achievement.

The blissful blessings of the heart
Mantra Sri ananda jay ananda jay jay shanti aum Free translation “Oh precious essential joy, receiving you fills me with inner peace.” Over de Sri Ananda Rasa mantra
This mantra expresses the joy of spiritual bliss (soul happiness) from the depth of your source, via the flowing life force of your being, into the oneness of surrender. The Sanskrit word sri is a respectful greeting, indicating that the name or concept that follows it shines, carries dignity, and encompasses an honorable quality. The Sanskrit word Ananda means the essence of happiness, the happiness of being, or the happiness of the essential. The word jaya means, among other things, salvation, victory, or blessing. It affirms your respect for what comes after and indicates even more clearly that this is truly an ode. The word shanti means inner peace or a harmonized state of being and indicates a profound experience of abundance, non-violence, and love. The word aum indicates that what has been or will be said is meant to be comprehensive and spiritual in nature. It refers to the underlying wholeness in which this mantra is embedded.
