YOGA SUTRAS OF PATANJALI | CHAPTER 1 - SAMADHI PADA | VERSE 51 | COMMENTARY
Tasyapi nirodhe sarva-nirodhan-nirbeejha samadhih
तस्यापि निरोधे सर्वनिरोधान्निर्बीजः समाधिः॥१.५१॥
Tasyāpi nirodhe sarvanirodhānnirbi̅jaḥ samādhiḥ ||1.51||
When this impression is also dropped, Nirbijah Samadhi happens.
When the knowledge, the truth is also dropped, dissolution, Liberation happens. From knowing the cause of creation, one realises one’s own self to be the cause of creation, the creation itself, and its end. There is nothing but “I.”
This event can only happen through grace and it is one that cannot be reversed or changed. One has realised the Self.
The One Principle, The Absolute Truth is God. Where there is knowledge of God, the impression of the knowledge destroys all other impressions. In Nirvikalpa Samadhi, when even the seed is destroyed, even the Samskara of knowing God is destroyed - one becomes God. When one knows God, there is nothing else.
