Aesthetic joy

The great poet and thinker in Kannada, DVG, writes in his magnum opus, Mankuthimmana Kagga, about aesthetic joy.

What is beauty? That which makes people forget themselves in utter joy. Aesthetic joy is but resonating with the universal consciousness! That is the source of life! That's how we relate to the Supreme!

No wonder the Upanishad declares, 
रसो वै सः 
Brahman is Aesthetic Joy!
