Re: ~~What exactly is Meditation?
Tue, January 1, 2008 - 10:38 PMMeditation is a very large subject, spanning many religious traditions and practices, where it is often used with different techniques and for different reasons, everything from stress management to consciousness expansion to self-realization. Wikipedia has a good introductory article on the subject (and related subjects). You might start there and then do searches from that. On tribe, there are tribes devoted to the different varieties, but it may take you some time to fathom the differences, so as to be able to ask meaningful questions. Blessings and Good seeking to you.

Re: ~~What exactly is Meditation?

meditation is reflecting, thinking, to arrive at understanding.
Of course it can help you on your journey!
get quiet, sit silent, breathe, relax and think!
