Hi Neptune:
Samadhi is the eighth limb of yoga and means "absorption in pure bliss consciousness," or "abiding in inner silence," "the witness," "stillness in action," etc., all which we talk about so much around here from an experiential perspective. Everyone who loses the mantra during deep meditation enters samadhi.
There are as many types and grades of samadhi as one might care to define, and it can get very technical in splitting hairs. It really depends on experience. Before then, it is mostly academic.

Carry on! 
The guru is in you.

Samadhi is a state of mind where there are absolutely no thoughts present, even one thought that I have no thoughts is not there. Total awareness only. We all go to this state in our sleep but only for a few minutes the only difference is we are not aware, it just happens.
