Ananda is bliss. Nanda is something that can die out, disappear and
related to suffering. Ananda is that which can never disappear from
your being, it is bliss. It is not joy. Joy brings suffering in its
wake. Ananda is beyond joy.
Pleasure is what you feel through your senses based on an outer object; music, a fragrance, a beautiful sight, physical touch. When you meet nature, a mountain, a sea, a forest you feel joy. When you feel ecstasy without sensory inputs or nature, not even forms of God, only from your inner core of energy, your atman, without any external input, it is bliss. It can be with no reason. It comes from with in. That is Ananda.
Yoga; it's important to understand what is not yoga. Yoga is not physical exercises or breath control; these are but a part of Yoga. Yoga is union; the union with the divine; union with the cosmic power. It is Chitta vritti nirodaha: it's the cessation of the mind, to take it beyond the mind, to be one with existence. The blissful technique to unite yourself with the divine is ananda yoga, using bliss itself to unite.
