Chip seems to translate 'saMyama' to 'focusing with perfect 
discipline'. Example:

By focusing with perfect discipline on the body's relationship to the 
ether, and developing coalesced
contemplation on the lightness of cotton, one can travel through space.

I wonder how much that translation of 'saMyama' is due to Chip's 
apparently being a fan of Buddhism...
