YOU ARE THE PRIOR-MOST,
… YOU ARE THE ABSOLUTE !

Visitor: To meditate on that which comes after the Beingness.

The only way I see it; is to watch what remains, when everything is gone. When time, space, and everything disappears, what remains?

Nisargadatta Maharaj: When the manifest world of the three gunas is gone, whatever remains indicates what you were a hundred years ago, and prior to your birth.

In that state, ‘You’ were bereft of the three states of; waking, deep sleep, and Knowingness.

You should abide in that state during meditation.”

V: How does one avoid going into Samadhi, in this meditation?

N.M: Going into Samadhi or coming out of Samadhi are not your qualities. You are beyond qualities.”

V:My question is how to avoid it.

N.M: Going into, and coming out of, Samadhi, are qualities like all other qualities of the three gunas, and do not try to avoid Samadhi.

It is the natural play of the three gunas. Samadhi will be there, but ‘You’ – The Absolute, are not in the Samadhi.”
