“You wander
restlessly from forest to forest while the Reality is within
your own dwelling. The Truth is here! Until you have found God
in your own Soul, the whole world will seem meaningless to you.”
~Kabir
Samadhi
consciousness is the highest state of consciousness on the
planet today. It is one of the most mind blowing powerful spiritual
experiences I've ever been blessed to get to experienced in my
life. Samadhi goes beyond any trip one could ever create through
drugs, sex or any substance. It is a total natural merging of
your soul with the Divine Intelligent Universe.
I received my
first taste of samadhi in my travels
through India in 1995 at the age of 25. I was deep into my
spiritual search after my fathers suicide, and had been
meditating for many months when Samadhi happened. It literally
took me by surprise, and felt like an atomic bomb went off
inside me, wiping clean any attachments I had to my
ego/mind or limiting identity in a matter of seconds.
I was in a deep
mystical and magical Samadhi
Experience for the following months afterwards. Life was like
nothing I've ever experienced before. There was no reference
point to describe how totally different EVERYTHING was. My
consciousness was soooo expanded, I was listening and
communicating with everything around me. I was in a complete
oneness with the Divine Intelligence, which I felt all around me and
inside me. It was pouring through me every millisecond and there
was nothing I could do to stop it.
The samadhi
feeling is a very open hearted connection with everyone and
everything... all the time. The mind is simply not in the way
anymore. The mind is gone, and has stopped doubting, projecting
and analyzing every thought and experience.
In Samadhi
consciousness you are so completely free, and unlimited that all
things are possible to you. It’s not just that they “seem”
possible, they ARE possible. Your mind-body’s vibration is so
high that your ability to manifest is truly unstoppable.
The wildest thing
is that this ever-expanding state of bliss is available within
you right now. If you are open to exploring what this magical
state is like, the guided meditation below will take you on a
journey to drop through the mind chatter so that you may get a
taste of this highest state of consciousness.
. Samadhi is an
ancient Sanskrit word that literally means “the bliss from
transcending the mind”. Samadhi is a state of perfect “clear
seeing” that recognizes the Divine within yourself, in
everything around you, and in every person you meet. The state
of Samadhi is a profound spiritual experience where you explore
deep joy, expansive feelings of lightness, love, connection to
the Divine and enlightenment.
Samadhi is unique
from other paths on the spiritual quest in that it goes directly
to the Source of pure consciousness and remains there. Samadhi
is the highest spiritual experience you can have. It opens you
up to your most enlightened self who is free from worry, fear
and any attachment to this world. One who is living their life
in Samadhi Consciousness feels only love, oneness, and peace
within every experience they have. When you receive your first
taste of Samadhi there is a deep knowing that all is one, and
that “oneness” is at the core of who you are.
“Enlightenment is not about imagining figures of light, But of
making the darkness conscious! ” ~ Carl Jung
In Samadhi, there
is such a tremendous feeling of bliss because there is truly no
inner judge or discriminatory mind present. There may be
thoughts that pass through the mind, yet you are no longer
clinging onto them. One who has entered the state of Samadhi
discovers a deep personal, intimate merging with the Divine
Being within themselves, and as well within everyone they meet.
The ego within others and yourself is easily seen and
transcended in Samadhi Consciousness. You are truly unified,
connected, and at peace with everyone in the Universe on every
level.
In Samadhi
consciousness you experience an eternally expanding realization
that this world and your ego is not real, and that the real you
(the soul, spirit and divine essence) is who you truly are and
will never die. To reach Samadhi, it takes a profound state of
constant deep surrender to the Divine. By relaxing into each and
every experience you’ll discover the pure consciousness that is
not attached to any thought, feeling, or idea. By surrendering
to this consciousness you will eventually arrive at a state of
bliss.
I had my second
Samadhi experience in 1996 during an intense 6 week spiritual
journey through India. I remember it was a very sunny blue sky
day, and I decided to lie down on top of a roof in a man’s home
in Bodhgaya. Staring at a few puffy clouds floating in the
distance, I asked the clouds if they would form a donut around
the Sun. I relaxed into this one-pointed focus of my attention
and within a few minutes there was a perfectly shaped donut
right around the sun!
Whatever I wanted
to create or manifest, happened! It was amazing. I could feel a
divine connection with everything. I went across the street to a
cafe and in the adjacent field saw a lonely cow hundreds of
meters away. I asked this one cow to come visit me and within a
short time she was 2 feet away looking me in the eyes. Life is
truly amazing in Samadhi consciousness. Anything is truly
possible in this divine spiritually enlightened connection when
we realize that WE ARE ONE with the Universe.
“You have
the power to create. Your power is so strong that whatever you
believe comes true.” ~ Don Miguel Ruiz
Samadhi can happen
to anyone who is devoted to finding the Truth of who they really
are. The divine spiritual essence is within you now in this
moment. The mind however can be very addicted to patterns of
seeing yourself and the world, and may require the focus of a
Guru, spiritual teacher, and/or deep inner devotion to
self-inquiry to unravel itself and find this permanent state of
freedom. The untrained mind is like a wild caged animal who is
unable to trust, relax and remain at peace for even 10 seconds.
In Samadhi
Consciousness the mind is trained to be here now, so there is no
mind chatter. Your mind is completely at ease with life, fully
in the present moment, and truly free from worry and concern.
Problems from your past become illusory issues which you realize
you were always free from the appearance of their grasp.
This short Samadhi experience was so huge and such an
enormous shift in consciousness that I didn't know how I could
ever come back to the normal world again. I remember making the
decision that I would have to lower my vibration, fall down into
ordinary human consciousness again if I wanted to have a normal
relationship, family or friends on any human level.
“Don’t ask
yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come
alive! And then go and do that. Because what the world needs is
people who are truly alive.” ~Harold Whitman
If I could give
you any personal advice on your spiritual journey, the most
important secret I could give you is this. Approach this
spiritual exploration with a perpetually opening mind and heart.
No matter what, do not let your heart or mind close. There
is only God all around you, and if you try to pretend or protect
your ego from God, you'll miss it.
If you find
yourself contracting in fear, just notice your experience and
continue opening yourself up to a higher state of relaxation,
acceptance and inner peace. Inner peace is a choice and it is
always available at the core of your being.
Below is a meditation I
recorded to help you step into the experience of
Samadhi Consciousness. The more you listen to it, the more it
will sneak into your body and mind. Enjoy!!

 "The
Samadhi meditation is great! I have been meditating for about
thirty years using various techniques but have not found one that would
take me into the 'silence' as quickly and deeply as yours. I ran a
small meditation group of fourteen last evening and introduced them to
your Samadhi meditation, and without exception, all of these 'wannabe'
meditators claimed that they had not been taken so deep before."
