hmm...i think you have it backwards...

samadhi is flat kaivalya (point) until 
you learn how to function from within it, 
by doing Samyama. this practise develops 
Siddhis (powers)...but not at the expense 
of samadhi. The whole process is
nourished by samadhi...

in the sequence of development of c'ness,
from CC to GC, kaivalya is no longer seen as
flat, as in Yoga literature...it now is lively 
(enlivened by sanyama) in the Karma Mimamsa 
branch of literature.

but, after that comes Vedant (beyond Vedas)
where the subtle Silence (CC) and the
subtle Dynamism (GC) are finally United (UC)
in the greater Wholeness that is
Brahman (Totality)

or, so we been told  LOL!

Exactly. Sometimes it's a good idea to get an outside opinion...

Nice post George. As we've been told and as some have
experienced, yes? Only correction, point value is not
flat it is nothing. Out of this nothing arise the
virtual structures of consciousness, the devatas. They
are not objects of perception, but apperceptive
flavors of consciousness.
