Samadhi: One needs to taste it, to realize it !



We all are in this continuous journey called life. And we all are connected, related and synced with each other. Either we know it, or we don't know it.

The universe, this brilliantly vast and continually moving, uninterrupted existential matter that we call life. Is so fulfilling and flowering. It gives you variety, it gives you chances, it gives you the varieties; And it gives you chances;And it gives you the feeling of un-conditionality in what it is.

But having said so, life is just the glossolalia. The gibberish of the cosmos. Its the cosmic gibberish which makes us feel that it might mean something. But it doesn't.

So life doesn't need any reason to be, or even the reasoner in that sense. Since its the play, its the maya, as the Vedic and Buddhist scriptures put it. Its beautifully synced in-order to form something which is out of the ordinary human understanding, in terms of language but it can be felt, within us. It is there.

And that is depicted in the Vedic literature in a very beautiful manner. We can understand that by understanding the concept of the processor of the beginning.The beginning of time, space and even the existence as such. It is said it all started in the cosmic divine flow of water, where Vishnu resided.

Vishnu is the manipulator or the manager of the universe and he resides in the snake called Sesha Naag.The word 'sesha' comes from the Sanskrit root word 'sis', which means 'that which remains'.

The comic dance that remains even without the cosmos. No time frame can define it. No Kapla (as it is said) can define it. So there is no way to express it in our space bounded language.

This unique feeling, that one can have, goes beyond the senses and reaches the higher dimension of what we call a realized human being. Patanzali, the founder of Astanga Yoga, the reincarnation of Sesha Naag is said to have defined it as the state Samadhi.

Samadhi comes from the word Samadhan.
Samadhan means the solutions. The ultimate solution.So, its the state at which, there are no more question, or no more confusion and functional relations. The human then is the cosmic dance itself.

I think, it is quite related to the eighth circuit, in the theory of consciousness as defined and described by Timothy Leary or Robert Anton Wilson, and they call that, the quantum non local circuit or psycho-atomic circuit.

Its similar to what Patanzali refers to as Samadhi but the aspect that Timothy or Wilson put this, it term of psycho-atomic circuit is very timid in terms of expression and sense making. When we look at Samadhi as Patanzali describes it, there are further aspect such as Vikalpa and Nirvikalpa Samadhi, Choicelessness and Choicefullness.

So, there is lot to it, to learn through. But this language I speak with, cannot express it. Its completely incapable. The only possible way I can express it, is to express in absolute gibberish. There is no other way.

It is entirely individual phenomenon of realization. One needs to taste it, to realize it !
