Hello Rohi...how nice to hear from you! Yes, I actually came across a draft of this book online many years back. It really helped me grapple with a lot of very confused notions I had about samadhi/jhana. My essay is an attempt to share my journey in understanding and practice in an open and undogmatic way.
Shelina tells me you have done several interviews with Joah...I'm really looking forward to listening to what you have to say...especially from the Indian perspective. I really enjoyed hearing what Professor Dhar had to say. Do you think Dhananjay would share his story?
The responses (all positive) from my interview has been almost overwhelming...it's ongoing and actually hard to keep up with.
BTW...my personal contact is: brucestewart3@gmail.com. Cell for WhatsApp: (413) 625-2854. I'd be happy to chat sometime if your interested.
Hi Bruce,
Looking forward to it.
Have you read Kumara Bhikkhu's book, "What You Might Not Know about Jhāna & Samādhi."

I found it very helpful.
All the best!
Many smiles and much metta,
Rohi
