Samadhi
Samadhi is the 8th path among Nine-fold paths of yoga (Nawanga Yog). Nine-fold paths include Yama, Niyama, Asana, Pranayam, Pratyahar, Dharana, Dhyan, Samadhi and Upasana. Asana and Pranayama become easier for those seekers who follow the rules of Yama and Niyama. The power of Dharana develops after the completeness of Pratyahar. As a result, an individual swims in the abysmal depth of meditation and one day, he/she can experience the Samadhi. Then, one reaches the state of Upasana.
Samadhi is the state where all the problems of life are solved. Samadhi, it is the solution to all the problems of life. The one whose consciousness is the state of Samadhi; he/she senses purity, smokelessness and cloudlessness in the inner heart. It means no vibrations are left in the state of Samadhi. The consciousness which achieves the state of Samadhi becomes void of all kinds of negative-positive feelings and waves. In Kabir’s words, “state of no -mind is the state of Samadhi.” The great people, who are in the state of Samadhi, have full control upon their mind; they use mind as a tool. If it is not needed ,they keep it aside and ponder into the cave of void or introvertedness. To attain the state of Samadhi is to annihilate all types of desires, ambitions and wants. Also ,there is no meaning of time created by mind for seekers in the state of Samadhi. Those who accept the present situation wholly, they are in the state of Samadhi. They are also called Brahma Gyani (Who have knowledge of universe), a great and intuitive person with a divine personality.
In simple words, staying in the divine state of consciousness with no impurities or discards is called the state of Samadhi. Samadhi is the pure state of the soul. It is the last step for flying in the divine sky of Upasana (blenching oneself to the divine power).
