Beyond Cognitive Samadhi: Understanding Asamprajnata Samadhi

Asamprajnata Samadhi, described in Patanjali’s Yoga Sutra 1.18, is the transcendence of even the most refined meditative cognition. Through Para Vairagya—supreme detachment—every mental modification ceases, leaving only subtle impressions of cessation (Saṁskāra-Śeṣa). It marks a categorical shift from knowing to being, where pure consciousness abides in its own nature, beyond all thought.

This blog uncovers how they replaced Gurukuls with colonial schools, suppressed Ayurveda, and divided society—leaving a legacy of mental colonization that still lingers.

British Stole Indian Treasures: Colonial Plunder and Cultural Genocide

Britain’s colonial conquest of India was not only political but civilizational. Millions in wealth, sacred art, and knowledge were stripped from Bharat—Tipu Sultan’s treasures, Amaravati Marbles, Kohinoor Diamond, and ancient manuscripts now fill British museums. This plunder erased India’s cultural memory and redefined its heritage as imperial trophies—a crime whose echoes still resonate today.
