Here is a verse worth pausing over, for it says something not met elsewhere in these books: Rāma himself abides in samādhi. It says samādhi-virame, «at the ceasing of samādhi»; that is, Hanumān approached him just as he came out of concentration. And it says what he was absorbed in: svarūpa-dhyāna-nirata, «in contemplation of his own being».
This is worth examining, for it seems strange: why should the highest contemplate itself? The Vaishnava reading given is this, and it is, I think, beautiful. He contemplates not himself as an abstract principle, but his own beauty, and contemplates it as a devotee contemplates it; and the story that Kṛṣṇa himself marvels at his own beauty is among the chief stories of that tradition.
That is, he is at once the object and the one who relishes; and this is not a contradiction, for the same is said by the word ātmārāma. Add the first half-verse: dhī-vikriyā-sahasrāṇāṃ sākṣiṇaṃ nirvikāriṇam, «witness of the thousand movements of thought, unchanging». That is, in one verse it is said both that he is witness and unchanging — as the non-dual school teaches — and that he sits in a hall with his family and comes out of samādhi.
The book does not consider this a contradiction; and in this, I think, lies its whole stance: abstract definitions are applied to the One who has a face, a city, and kin.
