abstract
| - High Fist Anand was the commander of the 4th Malazan Army on Quon Tali. He was an old man with a tall, "spear-slim form" and white brows with a short greying beard who had a reputation for fairness.
- Anand is the administrative centre of Anand District in the state of Gujarat, India.
- ANAND (Skt. Anand, from nand meaning "to rejoice" or "to delight") denotes mystical experience, spiritual bliss or a state of consciousness such as that ofaJi`van mukta, i.e. one released while still in body. Anand in the Upanisadic texts istaken to be one of the three inherent attributes of atman or Brahman, the other two being sat and chit. In the Taittiriya Upanisad (II. 15), it acquried this meaning of pure bliss. The self at the lowest or first stage of its evolution is defined as the annamaya kosa (the matter) which evolves successively into prana (life), man (mind or perceptual consciousness), vijnana (selfconsciousness) and ananda, nondual bliss. In SIKH theology too, anand is one of the attributes of the Supreme Self; so it can be the state of the individual soul as well. GURU Amar Das`s composition Anandu, in the measure Ramkali, gives an exposition of the experience of anand, of the union with the immaculate Hari attained through absorption in nam, i.e. repetition of Divine Name.
