My longing has changed. Life have humbled me yet again and I am thankful for the many mirrors in my life. In my current understanding, it is not about states: divine, ecstatic, lights and mystical wines, diving deep into stillness.... It is about equanimity.

O benefit of ill! now I find true
That better is by evil still made better;
And ruin'd love, when it is built anew,
Grows fairer than at first, more strong, far greater.
So I return rebuk'd to my content,
And gain by ills thrice more than I have spent
Part of sonnet 119

he is said to be a steadfast yogi whose heart through knowledge and realization is filled with satisfaction who having conquered his senses ,never vacillates ,and to whom a clod ,a stone and gold are the same . The gita chapter the way of meditation .
for a sage who wants to attain yoga action is said to be the means ; but when he has attained yoga ,serenity is said to be the means
the gita chapter the way of meditation
