Vartal-1: Nirvikalp Samādhi

Summary

1. Even if the prāns are not controlled, one is said to have attained nirvikalp samādhi if:

1. One has taken a firm refuge in the manifest God.
2. One has a firm conviction in the manifest form of God without any form of doubts whatsoever.

2. Even if the prāns are controlled, it is still considered savikalp samādhi if:

1. One continues to harbour doubts in the manifest form of God.
2. One does not feel fulfilled by attaining the incarnate form of God.
3. One desires to see God residing in His abode.

3. In one’s fight with the mind:

1. If he wins, then he attains nirvikalp samādhi and becomes an ekāntik bhakta of God.
2. If he loses, he falls from his spiritual endeavours. Then, maybe after one life or two lives or even after many lives, ultimately, he will become an ekāntik bhakta.

4. One who aspires for liberation should develop enmity towards his mind.
