What is the difference between meditation and samadhi?

Meditation is the journey, while samadhi is the destination; in samadhi, the bliss of meditation becomes your natural state, effortlessly present in every moment.

— Osho
Synthesized from Source definition
Meditation is the practice; samadhi is when that peaceful clarity stays by itself all the time, so you no longer need to practice.
Why this matters practically
- Keeps you focused on transformation, not just technique.
- Offers a signpost: equal peace in and out of meditation means ripening.
- Encourages wholehearted practice until effort gives way to effortless being.
