Explication
Sattvic happiness is like poison at first but like nectar in the end. It is born of the clarity of one's own understanding, or of the serenity of the self. The image captures the experience of discipline: self-restraint and study may feel bitter at first, yet they lead to deep and lasting joy. Some readers take the self here as the true self (ātman), others as one's own mind. Either way, this happiness grows from within rather than from outside stimulation.
