Ekākāratva (एकाकारत्व) refers to the “the state of one” and is used to describe Samarasatva, according to the Brahmānanda’s Jyotsnā (verse 4.6).—Accordingly, “Because of the transformation into the self's form, of the mind [which is] situated in the self, the state of the self’s form [prevails], like [the transformation] of a crystal, situated near a China rose, into the form of a China rose”.
