Samarasa
Samarasa (Sanskrit Devanagari: समरास; IAST: samarāsa; synonymous with IAST: ekarāsa; ; ) is literally "one-taste" "one-flavour" or "same-taste" and means equipoise in feelings, non-discriminating or the mind at rest. In Buddhism
Nalanda Translation Committee (1982: p. 223) render a work on Marpa, the famed Tibetan Yogi and define samarasa as:
...equal taste (S: samarasa; T: ro-mnyam) The yogic practices and visualization exercises of Buddhist tantra are extremely complex, but underlying them is a single experience of things as they are. This realization or state of mind is sometimes called equal taste, meaning that all extremes of good and bad, awake and sleep, and so on have the same fundamental nature of emptiness and mind itself. Dzogchen
Vajranatha (1996: p. 332) in his glossary of The Golden Letters, an annexure to his translation of, and commentary upon, the 'Three Statements' () of Garab Dorje, defines thus:
ro-gcig: single taste, single flavour, the state of being a single taste, ekarasa
ro-snyoms: same taste, the process of making everything into the same taste, samarasa

In Hinduism
Samarasa is one of four principal keywords and teachings of the Natha Tradition, the other three being 'svecchachara' (Sanskrit: स्वेच्छाचार), 'sama' (Sanskrit: सम), and 'sahaja' (Sanskrit: सहज). Shri Gurudev Mahendranath (1911 - 1991), founder of the International Nath Order, wrote:
