Acharya Samadhi Meditation

Samadhi Meditation

Meditation is expressed by two words Dhyana and Samadhi; Dhyana means temporary meditation, witnessing - but real meditation happens by coming into continuous consciousness, which is known as Samadhi. Then you are into meditation, then getting out is not possible, this is the highest state where you live and enjoy meditation, when all actions are done in consciousness - when you eat in meditation, work in meditation, enjoy sex in meditation, when such a continuous state of meditation is reached then you become awakened - a Buddha.

Samadhi Meditation is a highly advanced meditation technique to bring you into continuous meditation.

This Samadhi Meditation technique helps you reach faster towards being in continuous meditation. With its practice, being awakened is very much possible.

Samadhi meditation lasts 55 minutes and has three stages each stage ends with a gong sound. Watching yourself is to be carried out in all three stages.
Keep your eyes closed in all the stages. You can open your eyes when each stage ends and enter into the next stage with your eyes closed. Watch yourself, keep witnessing remain in your consciousness.

First Stage

While standing, close your eyes, take a few deep breaths, feel the music Then, slowly move your legs, then slowly move your hands, in a relaxed way move your entire body. Just let flow your body movements. Be in your complete awareness. Keep watching yourself, keep watching your thoughts, and keep your entire body moving slowly and slowly. Let all your body move, feel it. Do not move too fast; do not make the movements a dance - this will help you come into total consciousness, just move slowly. Remain in total watchfulness, do not get too tired.

Duration of the first stage is 20 minutes.

Second Stage

Sit in a relaxed position, and close your eyes slowly. Move your body from the stomach, then slowly move your hands. Just flow with your upper body movements. Slowly, blink your eyes, feel it, watch it. Do not blink your eyes to an extent that it pains, blink slowly - be in your complete awareness. Keep watching yourself, keep watching your thoughts. Keep your entire upper body moving slowly and slowly while you are seated, feel it. This will help you come into total consciousness, just move slowly. Remain in total watchfulness, remain in total consciousness.

Duration of the second stage is 20 minutes.

Third Stage

Silently lie down on your back. Be completely relaxed like a dead body. Keep your hands wide open or closed to your body – you can also lie down sideways - you can lie down straight or with bringing your legs close to your stomach - suit yourself - just lie down in complete silence. Remain a witness, watch each and every thought, and be in your complete watchfulness and consciousness. Go deeper and deeper into the silence of the within, hold the very silence, hold the watchfulness, just be with it - watch and watch yourself this is the key.

Duration of the third stage is 15 minutes.

People may say that meditation techniques seem like nothing but a wild dance. Let them say – only from the wild you can come into being civilized. The wild dance technique is designed to make you let go – to make you accept all that is within you – acceptance is the key to meditation.

During meditation, you may have thought to scratch your body, to move your body, or adjust your sitting position, let all this happen. Do not stop any thought, just flow with it, watch it – during the last stage of sitting in silence, you may suddenly get reminded that today you may have missed an important meeting or you have missed an important due date – do not get up to make a phone call- you may feel some uneasiness because of all the dancing and jumping, simply watch your thoughts. You will realize those old thoughts go and new thoughts take their place – the very technique of meditation is to make you aware that thoughts come and go –you have been giving unnecessary importance to every thought – your realization will make way for the inner silence- it will slowly take you into acceptance.

Become a watcher and not the doer- experience that you and your body are separate.

Watching yourself during meditation practice cannot and should mean to refrain you from taking actions- actions are also part of your thought process- watch your actions too.

People with medical trouble should restrict their deliberate vigorous breathing, dancing, and jumping to a limit which your body permits – do not try to do what others are doing – do not copy anyone - there is no one to give you marks – simply be yourself - the very idea of meditation is not to force but to liberate yourself from the force itself.

Do not watch your pain to an extent that you stop the intake of medical help. Meditation should be added to your life it is not a substitute for any medical help. Meditation should not be done with a hungry stomach, the comfort of the body is equally important.

The music, the dancing, breathing, body movements, and body positions are devices designed and mixed together to bring you into meditativeness. Watchfulness and witnessing is the key to meditation. Without coming into watching yourself and witnessing - all the techniques will be just like a dance practice or body exercises. Watching yourself and your thoughts is meditation.
