• Types of Samadhi
• There are 2 types of Samadhi:
• 1. Samprajnata Samadhi (Savikalpa)
2. Asamprajnata Samadhi (Nirvikalpa)


• Samprajnata Samadhi (Savikalpa)
• Samprajnata Samadhi (or Savikalpa) is a meditative
state of peace and quiet. The practitioner temporarily
experiences the union of the mind, body and soul only
in meditation. Ordinary consciousness and decision-
making takes over once the person leaves the
meditative state.
• There are 4 stages of Samprajnata Samadhi:
• 1. Sarvitarka Samadhi
• In this stage, the mind focuses on every aspect of the
object of meditation, such as a flame.
• 2. Savichara Samadhi
• Once the object’s physical aspects are understood, the
mind moves to understanding the more subtle aspects
of the object, suchVadiya
asDrbeauty, love,Jaipuraura, etc.
Kashinath Samagandi,NIA
• 3. Sa-ananda Samadhi
• In this stage, the mind focuses on the joy and
peace felt by one’s power of perceiving every
aspect of the object of meditation by leaving
behind the object and concentrating on the mind
itself.
• 4. Sa-Asmita Samadhi
• In this stage, only the satvic (pure) ego remains.
The mind is now fully aware of the divine
consciousness, and it’s connection with the
higher SupremeVadiyapower.
• Asamprajnata Samadhi (Nirvikalpa)
• In Sanskrit, a vikalpa is a thought-
construct. Nirvikalpa translates to ‘without thought
constructs’. In Nirvikalpa Samadhi, the ego is now
dissolved, and only pure and empty consciousness
remains. The mind transcends into a state of blissful self-
awareness, leaving behind all attachments to the
material world.
• There are 3 stages of Asamprajnata Samadhi:
• 1. Nirvitarka Samadhi
• This is the stage in which the mind has a complete
understanding of the true nature of consciousness by
leaving behind all material aspects. The mind is focused
on the artha, or form, and disregards the fact that it is the
knower. There is a greater control over the mind, its
ideas and knowledge.
• 2. Nirvichara Samadhi
• In this stage, the mind is free of all the
thoughts that are not relevant, and
concentration is almost laser-focused. The
concepts of space and time lose their
meaning in Nirvichara Samadhi.
• 3. Kaivalya Samadhi
• This is the final stage of eternal union with
the Supreme.
