Is there a particular name for when samadhi happens in the heart ?
Is there still a “where” in samadhi?
Yes it is in my experience total lost of perception of body isn’t until deeper samadhi. They begin in and on top the head . Which may or may not grow into losing perception of the body . However I have a rarer type of samadhi where the heart expands larger than the universe
I had my experiences confirmed as samadhi by many people including Christi nearly a decade ago
Hi Gabereal,
This is samadhi occurring in the sacred heart, behind and to the right of the heart chakra. Although to say it is behind and to the right is not accurate, as it is vast.
I have mentioned it a few times in these forums:

Thank you Christi I enjoyed reading your post very much
Hi Gabereal
What Blanche is saying is that samadhi can’t be located. All experiences pass including the heart experience you had “confirmed”
There is nothing to cling to
Yah I disagree . Total loss of perception of the body happens in deeper samadhi. Anyone who says otherwise is probably lying or just found themselves going into deep samadhis initially . I’ve met sages who even refer ajna as the samadhi chakra Bc there is experience is it happens there.
Life itself can be summarized as experience and desire . And you’re saying not to cling to anything yet you’re clinging onto a definition of samadhi you simply read somewhere
Hi all,
There are many different kinds of samadhi, and ways in which it can be experienced. Some have certain locations, such as samadhi in the heart, or ajna, or at the crown chakra. Other forms have no specific location, but still with awareness of all or some sensations. Then there is samadhi beyond all sensations, fluctuations and experiences of space and time. It is not so important. The more important aspect of samadhi is what we are able to let go of during the experience. Samadhi is useful to the extent that we are able to let go of false identification with objects of the senses and objects of the mind.
To the degree that we are able to use samadhi to this end, it becomes a useful factor of enlightenment. One of the most useful factors.

Hi Gabereal
I have no definition whatsoever of samadhi
I am drawing your attention to a pitfall but you prefer to use a logic that is out of place and assume I have a definition
Best of luck
