Samāyoga (समायोग) refers to “union (with the deity) (through the highest fusion)”, according to the Jayadrathayāmala, Ṣaṭka 1 verse 13.3-18.—Accordingly, “[...] But that initiation which [is performed] after [all experiences that] need to be experienced have waned, that is the piṇḍapātikā (i.e. which causes the dropping of the body). [The Ācārya] should take hold [of the soul] through yoga and expel it with the razor and other fierce mantras in order to bring its union [with the deity] through the highest fusion (parayoga-samāyoga). For this is the [initiation which] bestows liberation immediately”.

Samāyoga (समायोग) refers to the “complete union (of all heroes)”, one of the last Tibetan Tantric scriptures belonging to the Buddhist Saṃvara tradition consisting of 51 chapters.—Exegetically, the term “ Ḍākārṇava” has multiple meanings. The literal, and possibly basic meaning, is “Ocean of Ḍākas”. In the closing verses of the chapters in the Ḍākārṇava, the Lord or Blessed One is described as having the nature of “the complete union (samāyoga) of all heroes” [sarvavīrasamāyogād], which is equivalent in meaning to the “Ocean of Ḍākas”.
