Buddhist meditation

 Buddhist meditation is the practice of meditation in Buddhism. The closest words for meditation in the classical languages of Buddhism are bhavana (mental development) and jhana/dhyana (mental training resulting in a calm and luminous mind).


In Buddhism the purpose of meditation is to stop the mind rushing about in an aimless (or even a purposeful) stream of thoughts.


People often say that the aim of meditation is "to still the mind".

In classical, traditional Yoga, as understood through a study of the Vedas, the Upanishads, the YOGA VASHISTHA, THE BHAGAVAD GITA AND THE YOGA SUTRAS, very little emphasis was placed upon the physical practices. . About 500 A.D. the emphasis of spirituality and Yoga started to shift more and more to physical practices and techniques in keeping with the materialistic, sensual, body-oriented nature of mankind in Kali Yuga. #yogabooks #hathayoga #classicalyoga #worldofyoga #yogapractice #yogaasana #yogainspiration #yogi #ancientyoga #vedas #yogaphilosophy #igyogacommunity #juruyoga #awareness #yogateacher #namaste #indiayoga #yogisofinstagram #bhagavadgita #yogadaily www.yogatoursindia.in
