Samadhi is a Buddhist thing, relating to achievement of nirvana.
I am extremely aware of the nature of samadhi, yes. The White Album, somewhat ironically, is actually quite entangled with meditative transcendence.

Hardly ironic, the Beetles were very much going for that vibe in that album, and the Beetles in general were quite involved with spiritual trancendentalism. I mean, "My Sweet lord" just DRIPS with that shit.

As for PURPLE..

No, No images for Purple Nergal!

THAT EYE DOES NOT EXIST, STOP TALKING ABOUT IT.

No, the irony is due to the context it is, by coincidence, appearing in here. The fact that the Beatles "were very much going for that vibe" is what I meant by saying it was quite entangled.

Bare in mind that what we consider to be samadhi is going to be what pertains to samadhi from our perspective. What we need is samadhi as it pertains to the perspective of, well, not us... It is similar, but I am not certain that a textbook will tell us the correct answer.

I also move that we not obey purple. Listen to it in case it inadvertently reveals something interesting, but do not obey it.

I move that the color between blue and violet does not exist and never has.

I thought that is was more of a... pur-It sees! It Witnesses! The eye has always and shall always see in the everpresent present and as it gazes into us we shall gaze into that which must not be seen!-rple, like a kitty...

It probably is quite nice, really. I mean, sure, probably in what could be loosely described as a predator-prey relationship with us, but so are lions and tigers and bears, and that worked out okay in The Jungle Book or Tarzan or what have you... We just need to establish that we are more fun to know than to eat, and remind it that the bleed-across mustn't exceed the tolerances of our metaphysic and then we can be the best of friends!

Clearly we should go back to the purple guy, but instead of obeying, demonstrate our stronger willpower and force it to obey us instead.

But doesn't us not going back show even stronger willpower?
