Gorakhnath and the Kanphata Yogis c20.201

c20.201

Rāja Yoga, samādhi, unmanī, manonmanī, amaratvā, laya, tatva, śūnya, aśūnya, paramapada, amanaska, advaita, nirālamba, nirañjana, jīvanamukti, sahajā and turiyā denote the same state of being. Just as with salt in water all becomes salty, so the mingling of ātma and manas is denominated samādhi. When the breath (prāṇa) becomes exhausted and the mental processes (manas) are destroyed (*pralīyate*), then their being equal (union) is called samādhi. And this equality, (this) oneness of the two, the living self and the absolute self, when all desire (*sāṅkalpa*) is destroyed is called samādhi.⁴
