Stages of Samadhi in Ashtanga (Rahul)

While samadhi may be the ultimate state in yoga ("union"), it is only the penultimate state in Buddhism, which uses samadhi as the basis for insight. It does this by practicing samadhi to a sufficient degree then emerging to engage in systematic mindfulness (satipatthana) practices -- while the mind/heart is temporarily purified by the singlepointed cleansing concentration of the absorptions (jhanas) -- to permanently break free of delusion. With the practice and comprehension of Dependent Origination, one enters the first stage of liberation called stream entry.
