Sravna,
You should read up on Advaita if you want a clearer picture.

Honestly one needs to believe and follow what Masters have laid down before us.

We all learnt driving by having total faith in the driving instructor and followed each step he showed us because he already went through the training needed.

Likewise, please read up..the issue here is you havent really read up on Advaita ..if you explore Advaita in the real sense you would know that even Adishankara didnt dissect Maya as to understand it or to remove it effects or anything.

The reason we need to " obey" Masters is for us to make our mind less agitated so we can receive inputs and not be fixated on anything that stalls our own self.

Kindly start reading and if possible find a Guru.
If there is no Guru, kindly surrender to God to guide your understanding.

Btw any feeling of bliss etc are actually our own mind in state of non reactiveness because no stimulus made us agitated yet.

So what is bliss?
Honestly it cant be defined..its a state of being dormant yet with full potential..its not felt as it doesnt go through emotions.

So all this positive, bliss etc are just our sensory inputs.
