I think this passage sounds more like Taittiryiya or Brihad Aranyaka. If you use Jacob you could perhaps find the passage by looking for ananda.

I do not think there is any such expression in the Muṇḍaka.

Friends:

Could you please give me the exact quote in Sanskrit from the Mundaka which goes something like this:

Brahman is joy, through joy it expresses and into joy it returns.

Kind regards,

Harsha
