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.
