Discussion-3. "He  am  I"  ...  "I behold  Thy  glorious  form"....."Savikalpa  Samadhi" ....".Nirvikalpa  Samadhi" .....  



 Before  the  final  experience  of  Oneness  "He  am  I,"  

we  have  been  shown  how  there  is  a  lower  state  of  realisation  that : -

"I  behold  Thy  glorious  form,"

wherein  the  ego  still  remains,  experiencing  a  divine  exaltation.

This  state  is  called  "Savikalpa  Samadhi".

This  procedes the  final  stage  of  total  end  of  the  ego n when  the  seeker  rediscovers  himself  to  be  the  sought :   --

--  the   "Supreme  Self " ( Paramatma ).

This  stage  of  experience  of  "Oneness"  : --

is  called  the  "Nirvikalpa  Samadhi".
