Samadi-door to liberation and enlightenment

[Nitiananda]

What is Samadi?
Samadi's explanation is difficult for me. For help, I turned to the explanatory dictionary and there found the following definition of the word: "Concentration on a certain thing, in which there are completely no other thoughts; full concentration on any business ". I thought: "This word must have a Buddhist origin, but there is something wrong with these definitions." Indeed, Samadi is a state acquired through the concentration of consciousness. Then what exactly is Samadi? In short, this merging of the subject and the object. "Subject" refers to himself, and "object" - to another person or object. "To merge" means, at the expense of a strong spiritual concentration, to dissolve in an object, to become one with it.
For example, you concentrate on a tree and look closely at it. If you continue to concentrate spiritually for at least thirty minutes (that is, if you have already reached such a stage), you can dissolve in the tree, become one with it. Moreover, due to the fact that you become one with the tree, you can learn everything about the tree. This is Samadi. If you concentrate on the soul of a person, you can become one with his soul and learn his thoughts and feelings. If you focus on God, you can merge with God.
There are two kinds of Samadis - external and internal. External Samadi is a connection with external objects, the internal is concentration on internal objects and merging with them. Internal objects are chakras, the soul, internal organs and so on. It can also be said that the final stage of the inner Samadi is a merger with the True Ego.
Training entry in Samadi should start with an external method - so did I, - because on external objects it is easier to concentrate. After mastering it, you go to the inner objects. If you continue training, you will be able to reach the next stage - a state called "A View of True and Complete Knowledge".
And now I want to tell you about Samadi, achieved by me. It is associated with the six yogis I mentioned earlier. The Samadi step is very important and covers five of the six yogas. Later I discovered that the school of Tibetan esoteric Buddhism Kagyu adheres to the same view as I did, but in those days I walked along this path unconsciously.
