When the modifications of mind have become weakened, the mind becomes like a transparent crystal, and thus can easily take on the qualities of whatever object observed - whether it be the perceiver (Grahitri), the perceiving (Grahanna) or the object of perception ( Grahyesu). This achievement of sameness or identity with the object of concentration is known as samadhi.
