Dhyana ~ Unbroken Concentration
The Meditation of Complete Absorption
The WISDOM podcast Season 3 Episode 100
~ Being is the ability to become one whatever is your focus. ~
💜
Dhyana is a term used for the seventh limb in the eight-step Yoga practice of the Yoga Sutras.
In Dhyana you become absorbed in the connection that you form with the object of meditation. Another way to explain Dhyana is 'the state of mind that requires deep mental thinking or concentration.'
The first four limbs (or paths) of the Yoga Sutras center on the purification of body and mind. In the pratyahara stage, the mind becomes completely free from the interference of external objects caused by the senses.
After the fifth limb of pratyahara, the mind will be ready to experience a higher state ~ Dharana (concentration) and Dhyana (meditation).
The larger purpose of achieving Dhyana is to take another step towards Samadhi, or complete identification with the Divine, the Universe, or however you like to imagine something that which is far greater than yourself.
