Cool to see the originality.
FWIW, the buddhist version of jhanas tend to refer to temporary states of concentrative absorption. You might have luck looking at some of the ‘wisdom’ maps, which tend to be a more long term frame.
I don’t know your work, but good luck!

Thanks! I didn't know this, I'll go check them out. Do you have any resources for wisdom maps that you'd recommend?

I personally don’t use a lot of maps in my practice, but some come to mind:
- oxherding pictures (from zen)
- four yogas (mahamudra)
- the four path model (Therevada)
- progress of insight (Burmese)
Shinzen weighing up +/- of maps, is helpful IMO:
