When the consciousness, which grabs or holds, the object, which it holds, and the senses through which it holds are in harmony, there is samadhi.
The one who is seeing, the mind, the Self, which is seeing, is in harmony, the senses are in harmony.
The eyes are the instruments through which you hold the scene. The ears are the instruments through which you hear the sound. Your ears, the sound that is heard and its source are connected. All these become keen, crystal clear - When can this happen? This can happen when your mind is not going on its own trip of regret, anger, anticipation, sleep, the five vrittis – proof, wrong knowledge, fantasy, sleep and memory. When you look at a mountain, you just don’t look at it as it is. Something is added to it. You are not seeing things as they are, but you are seeing them through your memory, seeing through comparison. That is no samadhi.
