Mike, Yes, I just posted something about that. To me they are the same: samadhi and shikantaza.
Wikipedia defines 'samadhi' as "a non-dualistic state of consciousness in which the consciousness of the experiencing subject becomes one with the experienced object" which is a pretty good description. I call this a 'monistic' state, or 'monism' which just means it's not dualistic or pluralistic.
