"Maha Samadhi is the final conscious abandoning of the physical body. Every infinitesimal piece of attachment or karma is completely surrendered unto God and dissolved into the Divine Ocean of Love. The individual transcends to worlds beyond karma and returns to God to merge into God. = Nirvana"
Samadhi comes from many years of meditative contemplation and practice.
Yet the Nembutsu practice helps prepare one for a meditative state of mind, when one mindfully contemplates the meaning of Amida's 48 vows and His Pure Land of Bliss.
