Satchitananda (existence-consciousness-bliss) is what we contact in deep meditation. It is what rises in us as silence, also called the "witness state". Stabilization of this transcendent reality as our sense of self 24/7 is the first stage of enlightenment. The phrase "pure bliss consciousness", used often in the lessons, is synonymous with satchitananda, inner silence and witness. Bliss is a key word in this. The immutable inner witness is a blissful one and so are we when we become it. And there is much more to come after that.
