[FairfieldLife] Origin of word 'meditation'
In the Old Testament (Christian name of Hebrew bible), hāgâ means to sigh or murmur, and also, to meditate [60]. When the Hebrew bible was translated into Greek the word hāgâ became the Greek word melete, and wh en bible was translated into Latin it became Latin word meditatio [61]. Meditation is derived from meditatio, meaning to think, contemplate, devise, and ponder [62]. Meditation was introduced as a translation for eastern spiritual practices. Meditation is referred to as dhyāna in Buddhism and in Hinduism, it comes from Sanskrit root dhyai, meaning to meditate or contemplate. It is also referred to in Islamic Sufism, Christian hesychasm, Jewish kabbalah, and many other traditions. Excerpted from: Mahak Narang, Cognative Enhancement Using Meditation as Intervention
