Namaste, Adi-ji,IMHO, I would say that the above is a description of the 'last stages'. Even in the Rig-Creation it asks whether God 'knows' or doesn't 'know'. So yes at a Savikalpa Samadhi level one is Sat-Cit- Ananda. However this is either experiencing or 'knowing', Maya or Avidya. Beyond this is NirviKalpa Samadhis of different descriptions Kevala, Sahaja etc etc, but all pointing to a non-knowing a non- experiential 'Silence', state. So ultimately there is only non knowing, non experiencing. No Sat-Cit-Ananda..NirGuna...Ajativada in fact....ONS...Tony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
