Death means nature’s take over. One has to leave behind all his earnings (wealth) and take with him all the problems (he has created with others).

Worldly View is relative (temporary) religion and the enlightened one’s view is the essence, it is the real (eternal) religion. Relative (worldly) religion is not religion if it goes against people’s view.

What does relative religion say? Within the relative (dependent), look for that which is free from dependency. If nature’s grace befalls upon you, then from the relative, the vision flow of the stream of right belief (self realization) will burst forth.

How much the inactivity of kashayas (i.e. anger, pride, deceit, and greed), there is that much activity of samadhi (state of inner bliss). Complete inactivity of kashayas, means complete samadhi.

Realisation of the Self (attaining Soul) is itself a samadhi (state of inner bliss). Samadhi will not leave amidst eating, drinking sitting, standing, it is a natural and spontaneous (sahaj) samadhi, it is a vitrag vignan (science of the ones who are free from all attachments, the enlightened ones).

Samadhi (state of inner bliss) attained by pinching your nose is not a true Samadhi (state of inner bliss). It is a solution which has been tried. Moksha means a Solution free state. Upeyabhaav!

Mokha (ultimate liberation) is attained by meeting a Gnani Purush (the enlightened one), otherwise even after millions of (trying) solutions, moksha will not be attained. Moksha cannot be attained through (trying) solutions, it can be attained through effort free state (upeya)

No matter how hard one tries, samadhi (state of inner bliss) cannot be maintained even for a minute, in this worldly life. He is either in intoxication of the ego, or he is in the dozing of the pride. He is in either of them. His work is done if he attains samadhi even for a moment. This is what is called sarvotkrushta santras (highest and the best level of peaceful-result)! [It is the state of] Vitrag (the enlightened one)!

As long as there is an effort made for Samadhi (state of inner bliss), it is not called a samadhi.
