Definition and Explanation
In Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras (3.4), Samyama is defined as the combined practice of Dharana (concentration), Dhyana (meditation), and Samadhi (absorption). When these three are applied together on a single object or idea, it leads to profound insight and mastery over that subject.
"?????????? ?????"
"Trayam ekatra samyama?"
"The three (Dharana, Dhyana, Samadhi) together (on one object) is Samyama." (Patanjali Yoga Sutra 3.4)
Through Samyama, a yogi gains supernatural knowledge (vibhuti) and deep wisdom about the nature of reality.
According to Mahavatar Babaji, Inspiration. Here are the Cross-References from Sacred Texts.
The Biblical Parallel: Focused Prayer and Contemplation.
In the Bible, Jesus emphasized deep, single-pointed devotion:
"But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you." (Matthew 6:6)
This resembles Samyama—withdrawal from distractions, deep focus, and divine communion.
In the Bhagavad Gita: Meditation and Steady Wisdom.
The Gita (6.20-23) describes meditative absorption (Dhyana) leading to Samadhi:
"When the mind, restrained by the practice of Yoga, attains quietude, and when seeing the Self by the Self, one is satisfied in one's own Self." (Bhagavad Gita 6.20)
Lord Krishna teaches steady wisdom (Sthita Prajna), akin to Samyama, where one gains divine knowledge through disciplined focus.
In Buddhism: Its Mindfulness and Insight (Vipassana).
In Buddhism, right concentration (Samadhi) is part of the Noble Eightfold Path, leading to enlightenment. The Buddha taught:
"Meditate. Live purely. Be quiet. Do your work with mastery." (Dhammapada)
This mirrors Samyama—deep focus leading to liberating wisdom (Prajna).
Let us take Powerful Action: Apply Samyama in Your Life!
Choose an Object of Focus (God, a mantra, breath, or a virtue like love).
Practice Dharana (Concentration) – Fix your mind without distraction.
Deepen into Dhyana (Meditation) – Let awareness flow unbroken.
Merge into Samadhi (Absorption) – Experience oneness with the object.
Example: Meditate on "Aham Brahmasmi" (I am Divine) until you realize your true Self!
Let us pray for Samyama’s Blessings.
"O Divine Light, guide me into deep concentration and meditation. May my mind merge with You, revealing supreme wisdom. Let Samyama awaken truth within me, so I see You in all. Grant me the strength to practice with devotion and attain liberation. Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti."
According to Mahavatar Babaji, Inspiration. Let us begin our Samyama today—to unlock the divine within! ???
Divine seekers, Brothers and Sisters in the Light,
Today, we turn our hearts to the teaching of the great sage Patañjali, who in his Yoga Sutra 3.4 reveals the pathway to transcendent insight through Samyama. He declares:
“?????????? ?????”
Trayam ekatra samyama?
“The three—Dharana, Dhyana, Samadhi—when united on one object, constitute Samyama.”
(Yoga Sutra 3.4)
Let us understand Samyama.
Dharana (Concentration): The steady fixing of the mind on a single point or idea without wavering.
Dhyana (Meditation): The uninterrupted flow of awareness toward that chosen object, free from distraction.
Samadhi (Absorption): The blissful merging of the meditator with the object itself, where subject and object dissolve into oneness.
When practiced together, these three form Samyama—the key that unlocks supernatural knowledge (vibhuti) and reveals the deepest truths of existence.
Let us look at the similarities to Samyama in Sacred Traditions.
In Christian Contemplation.
Our Lord Jesus invites us into focused, secret communion:
“But when you pray, go into your room, close the door, and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.”
(Matthew 6:6)
Here we see a call to withdraw from outer distractions, to concentrate our hearts in prayer, reflecting the spirit of Dharana and Dhyana that lead us into divine Samadhi.
In the Wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita
Krishna teaches Arjuna:
“When the mind, restrained by the practice of yoga, attains quietude, and when seeing the Self by the Self, one is satisfied in one’s own Self.”
(Bhagavad Gita 6:20–23)
This steady wisdom (sthita-prajña) arises from disciplined focus—our pathway to Samyama and the vision of ultimate Reality.
In the Buddhist Insight (Vipassana).
The Buddha’s Noble Eightfold Path places Samma-samadhi (Right Concentration) as its culmination:
“Meditate. Live purely. Be quiet. Do your work with mastery.”
(Dhammapada, Kindle location 279)
Through deep, mindful absorption, we awaken prajña—liberating wisdom akin to the fruits of Samyama.
Let us take action to Practice Samyama.
Beloved seekers, let us not leave this truth as mere theory. I urge you:
Choose Your Sacred Focus: Whether it is the name of God, a mantra like “Aha? Brahmasmi” (“I am Divine”), the cadence of your breath, or the virtue of Love itself.
Cultivate Dharana: Sit in stillness. Fix your gaze—externally or inwardly—without letting the mind wander.
Deepen into Dhyana: Allow your awareness to flow unbroken toward your chosen focus, welcoming each moment with gentle attention.
Merge in Samadhi: Surrender the sense of “I” and “you”—become one with that which you behold. Rest in the silence beyond thought.
Let us start today. A few minutes each morning or evening will open the door to profound transformation. Consistency will blossom into mastery, self-realization, and enlightenment.
Let us close with a prayer.
O Divine Light,
You who are the still center of all being,
guide my heart into true concentration and meditation.
Grant me the grace to unite Dharana, Dhyana, and Samadhi—
that I may taste the boundless wisdom of Samyama.
Reveal to me the hidden depths of Your presence,
and let this practice awaken my soul to liberation.
Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti.
According to Mahavatar Babaji, Inspiration. May you walk this path with courage and devotion, and may Samyama be your lamp in the darkness.
Here is a Closing Prayer.
“Source of all life, whether we address You as God, Brahman, or Buddha-nature, draw our hearts upward. Release us from the chase after empty treasures and fill us with the pursuit of your eternal presence. Aum -OM - Amen.”Namaste. - Asshe.
Please check the video clip for details". Om Shanti. Peace, always. ??? Namaste. Amen. -Asshe.
Now the question is not where to go, but how deeply to surrender.
Let this be the day your soul says:
“Lead me, Lord. I am ready.”
