Withdrawal / Reabsorption (Saṃhāra)
The drawing-back — not destruction but reabsorption, the world gathered home into awareness.
Saṃhāra is the act of drawing back in — dissolving a world, or an experience, back into the awareness it came from. Often translated 'destruction,' it is better understood as reabsorption: nothing is annihilated, it is gathered home, the way a thought subsides or an experience ends and returns to the silent depth of the mind. In the Trika rhythm, every experience that fades is a small saṃhāra.
