During the practice of meditation the mind is dissolved in inner self/ soul. Since mind is the contrler of senses therefore the ultimate Blissfulness is felt by mind and senses both, which improve a lot the perception of body sensation.

What happens when a sensation arises and you dont name it? The moment we give a name to anything or to any sensation we stop looking at it, we stop investigating it further. Everytime the sensation is something new but our response to the sensation is always old.
