VIBHUTI PAD SUTRA - 4

                                                        TRAYAM   EKATRA   SAIYAMAHA

                              THESE  THREE  (CONCENTRATION, MEDITATION , SAMADHI )


                                                          ARE  CALLED  SAIYAMAH

          IN the previous SUTRAS we have been told that there are 3 components. When one starts the practice , we have an object of concentration ,this is DHARANA, the improvement in the concentration leads to MEDITATION and the perfection of the meditation leads to SAMADHI. but In the earlier part of the Meditation one could go back and forth between the CONCENTRATION and the MEDITATION. So the SAMADHI may not last for long time or may be not sustained. In short the concentration is the lowest stage of the SAMADHI . the meditation is the next stage in the perfection of the SAMADHI .When the SAMADHI is perfected and is sustained , it has all three components .This is called SAIYAMA.
           When the SAMADHI is perfected one gets certain SIDHHI or the POWERS. These powers are dependent upon the DHARANA and the DHYAN . Depending upon WHAT we concentrate upon, we will get the POWERS.
