Meditation To meditate is to contemplate. Meditation is the steady, continuous, and patient
application of separating oneself from one's own thoughts--simply watching the mind
without any expectations. There are many ways to meditate, each requiring the deliberate
use of attention, but the effect is the same: a centeredness and a stillness within. Meditation generally includes avoiding
random thought processes and fantasies, and a calming and focusing of the mind.
Both the purposes and the practices of meditation vary. More
