Guest guest Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 Samaadhi is a much misunderstood word.. It is freely misapplied. All kinds of emotional upsurges, attacks of hysteria, nervous breakdowns, neurotic fits are now extolled and exalted as "Samaadhi"! Mark the word! It says Sama Dhee, that is to say, balanced, unruffled intellect; that is, a discriminating reaction of equanimity, in the face of heat and cold, grief and joy, pain and pleasure, rejection or rejoicing. One who has attained that stage, or realised that he is the one without a second, will be indifferent to fear or favour, to hate or love, to exalt or execrate. Where there is one, how can even thought arise. That is the Samaadhi - the being, the awareness and the bliss.- From Bhagawan's Divine Discourse in Dharmakshethra on 7th Jan 1971 .
