about samadhi

[Guest guest]

Q.188) Our good friend is towards the world only. But

still he gets the divine experiences of Samadhi. Can

you analyze his case? (from Nikhil, Flourida, USA)

 

Ans.) The main inseparable characteristic of God is

the special divine knowledge. When you are associated

with God in Samadhi, you must get that knowledge from

Him. When you associate with hot body, you must become

hot. Sri Rama Krishna Paramahamsa, associated with God

in Samadhi. When he came out He was preaching

excellent special divine knowledge. Apart from the

knowledge, He was also showing love and bliss. He had

divine visions also. Therefore Samadhi means the

association with God. The proof for such association

is the special divine knowledge (Prajnanam).

Awareness, love and bliss alone cannot be the

inseparable identities of God. Every living being

shows awareness. Therefore every living being cannot

be concluded having Samadhi. A prostitute shows love.

A drunkard shows bliss. Their experiences are not

proving Samadhi. Vision of an energetic form is as

good as seeing the radiating Sun. For such an easily

available petty vision you need not close your eyes

and convert your mental energy forcibly to become an

energetic form. It becomes equal to digging a great

hill and catching a small rat. First you must define

Samadhi as association with God. Then this analysis

can be applied. Samadhi means only association. If you

take Samadhi as association with awareness or love or

bliss only, then such experiences are consequent,

which are not divine. The prajnanam is always

associated with awareness, love and bliss. The

awareness, love and bliss can also exist independently

without Prajnanam. Some take awareness as God and for

them all the living beings having awareness are God!!

Some say that love is God and for them a loving girl

or boy is also God!! Some say bliss is God and for

them a drunkard or a smoking person using Hukka is

also God!! You have to eliminate all these people.

There is a heap of stones. In that heap some

artificial diamonds exist and there is also one real

diamond. The stones, artificial diamonds and original

diamond look like the same by glittering. You have to

eliminate not only the stones but also the artificial

diamonds, which are very closer to the original

diamond. These stones are all the human beings. The

artificial diamonds are the false human incarnations,

which exhibit love and bliss only and claim to be God.

Finally you will get a few artificial diamonds, which

are very very close to the original diamond. Such very

very close artificial diamonds are the preachers of

spiritual knowledge. They also preach the spiritual

knowledge and appear as if having the Prajnanam. Their

spiritual knowledge is not associated with love and

bliss and therefore, cannot transfer love and bliss to

our hearts. The other type of fraud incarnations

transmits love and bliss to our hearts, but cannot

transmit Prajnanam. Thus finally you have to identify

that single original diamond, which transmits infinite

love and infinite bliss through the special infinite

true knowledge. Lord Krishna transmitted such love and

bliss through preaching Gita. There were several

scholars like Vyasa, but even they were eliminated

before Lord Krishna. Even Dharma Raja was only a

devotee and not the Lord even though he showed the

excellent character, which is the result of the

quality, called Sattvam. The Lord is beyond even

Dharma. The Gopikas showed infinite love and bliss.

But they were not Lord because they could not preach

Gita. Only Sri Rama Krishna Paramahamsa had the real

Samadhi, which was proved by His Prajnanam. He never

studied any scripture. Therefore, Sri Rama Krishna

Paramahamsa is treated as the human incarnation of

Rama and Krishna. Even the Gopikas were not treated

so. After hearing the preachings of Sri Paramahamsa,

people developed infinite love and bliss. His words

were Upanishads. Adi Sankara also had such Samadhi and

therefore He radiated the Prajnanam. He never studied

Vedas and Sastras from any teacher. The Samadhi of

devotees showed the detachment from the world. It is

not possible for a devotee to turn to North and to

South simultaneously. Such an impossible state is

possible only to the Lord in human form as we can see

the case of Lord Krishna. But the human incarnation

must be finally decided by the emitting infinite

spiritual knowledge, which is associated with love and

bliss. If he is a devotee the external detachment to

the world must be essential sign as we see in the case

of Gopikas. As per your statement your friend may be

the human incarnation if he emits such special

spiritual knowledge associated with love and bliss.

Otherwise he can be considered as a devotee if he

shows the external detachment also. Otherwise he

should be considered as a person trying to become a

devotee and in such case he will be dancing between

the world and God. He may be also considered as ‘Yoga

Bhrasta’ who has slipped into the world, but retains

his divine contact from the previous birth. In such

case he will shortly become a real devotee, who is

eligible to become human incarnation also, provided

the Lord enters his body to do some special divine

work related to his divine mission.
