    antardhāna Tatpur. 1. n. (-nam) 1 Concealment, covering.

    2 Disappearance, invisibility; also considered as one of the

    forms assumed by Brahman (m.) in the process of creation,

    according to the Bhāgavata Purāṇa. In the Yoga philo-

    sophy it means the capacity of making himself inaccessible

    to the senses, acquired by a Yogin through applying the

    highest degree of meditation to the notions of Shape,

    Sound &c.: kāyarūpasaṃyamāttadgrāhyaśaktistambhe cakṣuḥprakāśāsaṃpra-

    yoge (v. 1. °śāsaṃyoge) 'ntardhānam ‘Disappearance arises

    from saṃyama (the highest degree of meditation which com-

    prises dhāraṇā, dhyāna and samādhi qq. vv.) being applied to

    Shape which inheres to Body, since thus the power (or

    possibility) of being seized by that--viz. the eye--is

    stopped and the clearness of vision has ceased to be’; this

    definition, add the commentators, implies also that the

    Yogin becomes inaccessible to the sense of ‘hearing &c.’

    when the same meditation extends to the notion of

    ‘Sound &c.’

    2. m. (-naḥ) A proper name; a son of Pṛthu and the

    father of Havirdhāna; also called antardhi. E. dhā with

    antar, kṛt aff. lyuṭ.
