A conscious experience that lies beyond waking, dreaming, and deep sleep. Pausing of specific mental activities while increasing activity in other area or areas of the brain. This allows absorption of the object of meditation. For example, looking at a flower - hearing, touching, smelling, desiring, thinking and behavior etc., may be stilled to allow for greater energy flow in another part of the brain - i.e. looking at the flower. The result is the conscious experience of union with the flower. This state of consciousness is often referred to as "one-pointedness of mind." There are various stages of samadhi of which the highest is nirvikalpa-samadhi. In it the object of meditation is consciousness itself - a consciousness of consciousness with no other object. There are degrees of control over ceasing mental activities. This results in degrees of intensity and absorption of sensory perceptions.
