The Boundless Vastness of Nirvikalpa Samadhi

The dissolution of self is not an idea to be understood but an experience so profound that it shatters every boundary of identity. Within Nirvikalpa Samadhi, there is no longer a centre from which one observes—only an ungraspable vastness, a presence that extends beyond perception. The familiar contours of individuality dissolve, revealing an unfathomable fullness, completeness untouched by time, thought, or form.

What remains is not an absence but an infinite presence, unrestricted and immeasurable. The self, once held together by thoughts, memories, and attachments, unravels into a luminous vastness beyond comprehension. The realization dawns that nothing was ever separate, that the entirety of existence is neither contained nor containable. There is no longer an observer and the observed—only boundless awareness, aware of itself.

This state transcends concepts, yet paradoxically, it is the source from which all concepts arise. It is neither stillness nor movement, yet it holds both in its embrace. Here, the experience of time fractures, revealing a simultaneity in which past, present, and future fold into a singular, ever-present awareness. What once seemed like a world moving in sequences is now seen as a single, unbroken wholeness, an indivisible totality.

Within this reality, the illusion of separateness is replaced by an undeniable recognition: the entire cosmos is held within, just as the being is held within the cosmos. Boundaries between self and universe collapse, and what is left is an intimate knowing—everything is this, and this is everything.

Emerging from this state feels like waking from a dream so convincing that it has been mistaken for reality. The self that once seemed so solid is revealed as nothing more than a fleeting mirage. What remains is pure awareness—unfiltered, absolute, and infinite. The brilliance of this realization is the recognition of one’s Original Nature, the luminous essence beyond all veils, what some call Dharmakaya, the unmanifested ocean of infinite potential.

The Infinite Horizon of Oneness

My Journey Through Totality and Nonduality

In a moment that defied the limits of ordinary perception, I found myself immersed in an experience of totality—a direct encounter with the boundless essence of oneness and nonduality. This journey wasn’t merely a philosophical concept or a fleeting glimpse; it was a profound, visceral experience that transcended the boundaries of time, space, and individuality.

As I delved into this state, I was enveloped by the overwhelming presence of all feelings and emotions. It was as if the entire spectrum of human experience was laid bare before me, each emotion coexisting in a harmonious yet intense interplay. Joy and sorrow, love and fear, peace and turmoil—all were present, all were real, and all were part of a unified whole. There was no separation, no fragmentation, just a continuous flow of pure emotional energy.

This immersion into the ocean of emotions was not chaotic, but rather, it revealed the intricate interconnectedness of all feelings. I realized that each emotion, no matter how contrasting, was a necessary expression of the same underlying essence. It was a profound lesson in acceptance and understanding, teaching me that to embrace one’s full humanity is to honour every aspect of our emotional being.

Yet, the journey did not stop there. I was drawn deeper, into an experience of all egos and senses of self throughout the entire universe. This was not just a merging with the collective consciousness of humanity; it extended to all life forms, transcending the Earth and reaching into the farthest corners of the cosmos. I became acutely aware of the diverse perspectives, thoughts, and experiences of every being. The individuality of each life form dissolved into a singular, expansive awareness.

In this state, I no longer perceived myself as a separate entity. The notion of “I” expanded infinitely, encompassing all beings, and all existences. I was simultaneously every person, every creature, every consciousness. The interconnected web of life was not just a concept; it was my reality. I experienced the joys and sufferings, the triumphs and struggles of all beings as my own. This collective consciousness revealed the profound unity that underlies the apparent diversity of life.

This journey through totality and oneness has profoundly transformed my understanding of self and existence. It has dissolved the illusion of separation and duality, revealing the inherent unity of all life. The experience has deepened my compassion and empathy, fostering a profound sense of connectedness with all beings.

In reflecting on this journey, I am reminded of the limitless potential within each of us to touch the universal essence. To experience totality is to transcend the boundaries of individual identity and to embrace the infinite oneness that we all share. It is a journey that beckons us to explore the depths of our being, to discover the unity that lies at the heart of existence, and to live with a profound sense of interconnectedness and purpose.
