Hi Sangat jeo , As we do paath or naam japp, there are three things : 1) You, 2) Paath / guru , 3) the action of doing paath All three things are different. However , samadhi is said to be state where all the three things become one. The knower, the known and the knowing melt into one. This is said to be state when a person's consciousness melts into global consciousness. Sounds cool ? Well , actually the more I read about this state the more I find it uncanny and unsettling and a little scary. As someone asked on quora https://www.quora.com/How-does-samadhi-feel-like Someone replied thus : And considering that this state (or lack of any state) is the ultimate aim of rehit/ gurbani or any other belief system, we're expected to aspire in this direction . But, We can truly never understand this state , as gurbani says "Goonge ki mitheyai" (sweet eaten by mute person, he can't describe it) , but I have always been curious of it . Its a state we find ourselves in deep sleep too , where we're not even aware of our ownself .However how would it feel like forever. Its kinda strange really.
