If it is of the nature of the not-Self,
how can there be Samahdi?
If it is of the nature of the Self, how can there be Samahdi? If it is both "is" and "is not", how can there be Samahdi?
If all is one and of the nature of freedom,
how can there be Samahdi?

Notes: 

It - inconscientousness or true realization.

Samahdi - the absorption of the mind in the absolute Brahman* (*all of existence), as a result of which the eternal Truth is realized.

Dattatreya* (* living sage said to have embodied the trinity) maintains that the practice of Samahdi has no justification.

If the universe of our experience is the not-Self, then the true "I" is not in the state of Samahdi, for Truth is not there.

If our experience is of the Self, then Samahdi is superfluous. How can The Self then be in Samahdi?

first things first we must clarify what is meant by Self
it is our true luminous being with no agenda on its shelf
meaning eternal living light, pulsating with delight
unendingly radiating an effervescence soft white 
feeling complete, at peace, enjoying unbound freedom
true singularity but not quite in God’s kingdom

with this preamble let us examine the exalted verse
we do so with spontaneity without need to rehearse 
ah ~ we must pause to elaborate what samadhi is
it is oh reader not mere knowing but becoming the bliss fizz
akin to the Self, samadhi too is singularity but in passivity
as such lacking freedom, we are there somewhat in captivity

alright, with the preamble put in place we may now begin
we disagree with the scripture but please see it not as sin
having been, seen, become and so known our Self as light
made in God’s image, though complete, we lack clear sight
adding to our woes, awareness bereft of love is barren and dry
which is why we choose to descend to earth that love draws nigh

God alone is, the all there is, both manifest and unmanifest
as such, what is duality and this earth life but a soul test
that the Self, which is who we are, grows in love, wisdom and power 
the three fold flame of Christ bestowed by God as a bliss shower
thus why should we negate samadhi or any flavour of life’s incense
all seemingly separate selves are in truth but God’s living essence
