"I had long regarded the goal of meditation as the attainment of a particular state called "enlightenment". There was a buried assumption that there is an end state. Later I learned that there is really no end state, no final goal, but just life as it is. The process has no end—just as meditation has no end.
It is said that there are infinite selves. As more and more of them are facilitated, or brought into Awareness – meditation is strengthened. The key is separating from them, breaking the trance, and then carrying the gift to the center, to the overarching Awareness, which contains and holds everything. The result is meditation in life or Samãdhi, the natural state.
It is free, un-entranced, yet not separate or aloof. It is Compassion, arising from connection to Essence. It is the union of form and formlessness, of Emptiness and Compassion, of Shiva and Shakti".
