Samadhi - ecstatic contemplation

Reaching a state of meditative consciousness or Samadhi should be your ultimate aim in this life.  It is a state of a being who has a reached a perfect union of his soul with the infinite spirit, the cosmic power.  He has become one with the divine by becoming a divine personality.  An out-of-body experience.

Samadhi - ecstatic contemplation means to consider thoroughly, concentrate full without any kind of distractions towards your goal of liberation, the unification of your soul with the supreme being - jivatma with Paramatma.

You are born as a part of the whole, you thought you are apart, but once you realize out of understanding that you are a part of the whole, you try to merge with the whole, and become the whole, completeness.  You reach the state of completeness, an undivided state.  You reach the state of single entity.  You will become the integral part of the whole universe, your true state.

In Samadhi, you totally observe and absorb yourselves and dissolve into the ocean of existence. We are all waves in the ocean of existence.  The waves of the ocean is part of the ocean and ocean itself as a whole.  The ripples that are created by the wind on a sea of water will die down eventually and reach a stable state.

Ocean is a symbol of infinity with its very large expanse.  When the river reaches the sea it loses its individual identity and assumes a larger identity of sea and becomes the sea itself.  The part merging with the whole and becoming whole again.  Reaching the original state is what is required of you to become.  Do not remain how you are, try to find out what you are, where you have come from, where you actual belong to and strive to find out your source and merge with it and become one with it.

The whole process of meditation is to bring stillness by removing all the thought processes in your mind and reaching the default state of nothingness.  Peace comes only when everything settles down, calms down to reach a state of equilibrium without any form of any movement.  It is the calm after a storm situation.

Samadhi is a state of equilibrium, a state of absolute silence.  In Samadhi you dissolve your egoic self, lose yourselves complete to merge with the universal whole and reach the ultimate state of blissfulness.  It is as if you are no more an individual entity and start existing everywhere.  Now, you represent the whole existence itself and nothing less.  Now you are a non-being.

Samadhi is attained through sustained concentration.  Samadhi happens when you deeply focus your mind on something until it becomes one with that thing. It is only through meditative consciousness you reach the state of Shunyata, the zero point in life.  You reach the point where there is no beginning or ending.  

You are always in the present continuous state throughout the journey of your life.

Attaining Samadhi state is the ultimate goal of a any meditative individual.

Celebrate Life throughout your journey
