Does someone know
what "meditation" means? "To meditate" looks like
"contemplate on something," but I don't know what
"meditate" means. But someone said it can be translated as "to
be attentive to something." So if we understand meditation, and if we use
the word "meditate" in that sense, I think it is a good translation,
but usually by "meditate" we mean to "dwell on something,"
or to "concentrate on" something. "Contemplation" is also
meditation, but the more fundamental attitude or practice, is attentiveness. -------------------------------- Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture - 68-02-00-A as found on shunryusuzuki.com. Edited by DC
