Samadhi (Enlightenment)

Samadhi Yoga Sydney

It is the eighth limb of yoga and third part of Yogic meditation, where individual awareness dissolves and becomes part of the universal wisdom. At this stage the yogi (one who practices Yoga) becomes completely immersed in it and can’t separate themselves from that.

Pratyahara, dharana, dhyana and samadhi together are known as inner Yoga (Antharanga Yoga). Dharana, dhyana and samadhi together are known as samyama that results in full detachment of worldly bindings and results in ‘Jnana’ (awareness). The whole eight limbs together are known as Raja Yoga.
