Yoga-suutra mentions several stages of samaadhi.
The main distinction seems to be sabiija- vs.
nirbiija-samaadhi. The highest stage is, I guess,
dharma-megha-samaadhi.
I wonder what stage "typically"(?) is the one mentioned
in Vibhuuti-paada (third book). It's hardly nirbiija,
because of "artha-maatra-nirbhaasam". Or, then again,
I don't understand anything about the stages of
samaadhi, LOL.
It's not pure samadhi in the vibhuti-pada, merely samyama.
Pure samadhi can (and does) occur during samyama.
Pure samadhi?
Sound like BS to me Spare.
