Ekāgryasiddhi (एकाग्र्यसिद्धि) refers to the “attainment of one-pointedness”, according to the Aṣṭāvakragītā (5th century BC), an ancient text on spirituality dealing with Advaita-Vedānta topics.—Accordingly, [as Aṣṭavakra says to Janaka]: “[...] Seeing the tigers of the senses, the frightened refuge-seekers at once enter the cave in search of cessation of thought and one-pointedness (ekāgryasiddhi). [viśanti jhaṭiti kroḍaṃ nirodhaikāgryasiddhaye] Seeing the desireless lion the elephants of the senses silently run away, or, if they cannot, serve him like courtiers. [...]”.
Vedanta (वेदान्त, vedānta) refers to a school of orthodox Hindu philosophy (astika), drawing its subject-matter from the Upanishads. There are a number of sub-schools of Vedanta, however all of them expound on the basic teaching of the ultimate reality (brahman) and liberation (moksha) of the individual soul (atman).
