eternal bliss

Heaven's endless happiness

Eternal bliss is a state of perfect, unending happiness—the kind promised by religious conceptions of heaven or spiritual enlightenment.

The phrase combines permanence with the highest possible joy: The faithful seek eternal bliss in the afterlife.

Outside religious contexts, it's often used hyperbolically for any deeply satisfying experience: This beach vacation is eternal bliss.
