'Samadhi' - excerpts from the Holy book 'Purana Purusha'; spiritual biography and commentary of Yogiraj Sri Shyama charan Lahiri Mahasaya

Lit. eighth and final stage of eightfold yoga - yam, niyama, asana, pranayama, pratyahara, dharana, dhyana, samadhi.

Prana Vibration along spinal Cord

Yogically by practising austere samadhi one has to surmount each step and proceed, samadhi will arrive at the final stage.

In the samadhi state there is a cessation of body-consciousness, mind and sensory faculties. It is now that the state of sahaja samadhi arrives.
 
Advancing deeper savikalpa samadhi occurs. Then also soul-visualisation is existent.

Yogiraj Sri Shyamacharan Lahiri Mahasaya

Delving further deeper in the recesses of yoga, a yogi arrives at nirvikalpa samadhi or mahasamadhi which is Kriya's transcendental state. In this state the yogi merges with the Absolute.

Common man opines that in the state of mahasamadhi, one does not return but this is an erroneous concept. Even after merging with the Absolute to effect human welfare a yogi does return but does not digress from this state.

Kriyayoga - the primordial and perpetual science of true Sanatana Dharma as revived by Bhagavan Sri Shyamacharan Lahiri Mahasaya. The Dharma of Atman. The Dharma of Prana. According to Sashtra, static state of Prana itself is God. The manifestation of Prana is present in all of us. But, it has to be Realized through Sadhana. And the way to realize Prana is ‘Pranayama’. The Bhagavat Gita talks about this most sacred and secret Pranayama.

This Pranayama or Kriyayoga can only be obtained from a Brahma-gyani and self-realized Guru. Only Sadguru can lead a sadhak to the correct path of enlightenment

Yogacharya Dr. Ashoke Kumar Chatterjee, World Kriyayoga Master

Yogacharya Dr. Ashoke Kumar Chatterjee is a Mahayogi himself and World Kriyayoga Master. His first guru was Sri Annada Charan Sastri, disciple of Sri Panchanan Bhattacharya, an elevated disciple of Yogiraj Sri Shyamacharan Lahiri. After Sastri ji's demise, Dr. Chatterjee obtained initiation from Sri Sundarlal Lala of Varanasi & later from Sri Satyacharan Lahiri, grandson of Yogiraj. Perhaps less known, but the lineage always maintained the strict norms set by Yogiraj Lahiri Mahasaya Himself, without committing any change in the practice itself.
