Samadhi (Sanskritसमाधि) in HinduismBuddhismJainismSikhism and yogic schools is a higher level of concentrated meditation, or dhyāna. In the yoga tradition, it is the eighth and final limb identified in the Yoga Sūtras of Patañjali.
It has been described as a non-dualistic state of consciousness in which the consciousness of the experiencing subject becomes one with the experienced object,[1] and in which the mind becomes still, one-pointed or concentrated[2] while the person remains conscious. In Buddhism, it can also refer to an abiding in which mind becomes very still but does not merge with the object of attention, and is thus able to observe and gain insight into the changing flow of experience.[3]
In Hinduism, samādhi can also refer to videha mukti or the complete absorption of the individual consciousness in the self at the time of death - usually referred to as mahasamādhi.

The world realized too late what we had done.  Even though we saw the inevitability of the something that was coming. We thought it would be a nuclear holocaust, or perhaps an astrological one.  We thought maybe pollution would do us in, or overpopulation; but no, it was the grass.  Species that we introduced where they didn't belong, slowly crept up, took over, suffocated everything other green thing within their reach, and then slowly began to die themselves.  Like with so many things, we didn't realize until it was too late, there was nothing we could do, nothing to be done.  The animals continued to breath for a while, but then it got harder.  Eventually, we all choked on our own ambition.  I'm sorry.
