Smritiratna portrays rejoicing not as a mood but as a choice: a deliberate act. At least potentially we all have the power to rejoice, even when we are in the pits of despair. In this excerpt, he reflects on Beethoven who chose not to give in to deafness but to end his last symphony with an ode to joy. He sings the fifth section of the Sevenfold Puja ‘Rejoicing in Merits’ to Beethoven’s familiar tune. Excerpted the from the talk The Power of Rejoicing given at Dhanakosha Retreat Centre, 2024. ***
