Thats the point, or similar point, that I made in the next two paragraphs of the piece you quote from. That the bliss is the same, inner and outer. (and as I tried to futher elaborate in other posts today, the inner bliss is related to neurotransmittor functioning and many things / activities / substances can have a hand in creating those NT transformation.) But relying ONLY on the outer dew drops limits life. Acqaducting the ocean to the garden is a much deeper and happier way live (imo). "..the outer dew drops of bliss. Which are good things too. Especially when infused with the INNER bliss. Playing in the morning dew is a great thing. But its play. To me, its was the minor thing, swimming in the INNER ocean was the major thing. And FUSING the two, creating aquaducts from the inner ocean to the outer garden of morning dew drops -- that was the REAL thing, the real challenge and life undertaking. Not to spend life only licking those few dew drops in the garden."
