Samādhih : Felicitation :
 
(sam ā √dhā ki) is otherwise called Samādhihitā (sam ā √dhā ta <
kita) is other. As a figure Samādhi denotes wise called Samāhitā (sam ā dhā ta <
kta). As a ell accomplishment ofi somethingure Samadhi denotes well accomplishment of something.
.
When an act scheduled to be accomplished by the doer through

proper means is accidentally accomplished by another through

some other suitable expedient, the figure is called Samaādhi. In such

rhetorical statement, the common cause for the operation does

not come as a help, but some other uncertain cause happens to

accomplish the desired action by chance without the help or desire

of any effort from the part of the doer. In Samaādhi, we find the

ascription of one's property upon another or through poetic

imagery one's property is superimposed on the other.

As I knelt down on her feet
 

Then it was for my favour
 

That the rumbling clouds began to thunder.
