Reg  << A person may practice and gain the ability to be in nirvikalpa
samadhi. But that is not a permanent possibility. If prarabdha is strong,
it will end the samadhi and give its effect. >>,

 this nirvikalpa samadhi is the result of effort. prarabdha could end it.
In the case of nirvikalpa samadhi (being
continuously established in Atmaikatva vidyA (jnana) ) of a jnani, it is
not through effort. It is through jnana. prarabdha cannot end it.
