Akashic Revelation
The Seer (learned Man) who is
practicing the Rajayoga constantly
without the thoughts of any
worldly object and the effect of the
actions of the physical organs is
completely bereft of all action and
shines in the state of Nirvikalpa
Samadhi (unattached Yogic repose)
in a most auspicious Yoga sleep.
