What is body-consciousness? Analyse it. There must be a body and consciousness limited to it which together make up body - consciousness. These must lie in another Consciousness which is absolute and unaffected. Hold it. That is samadhi. It exists when there is no body- consciousness because it transcends the latter, it also exists when there is the body-consciousness. So it is always there. What does it matter whether body-consciousness is lost or retained? When lost it is internal

samadhi: when retained, it is external samadhi. That is all.
