How Old is Meditation?

According to the French theorist, Michel de Montaigne, "the greatest thing in the world is belonging to oneself." So true in our fast-paced world today. We must take a moment to reflect on who we truly are.

Meditation: how old is it? There is no simple answer. The 'olden tradition' is a term used in research studies, books, and schools of meditation, but how long meditation has been practiced depends on how you define it.

Based on artifacts and recommendations from Eastern nations, more schools of thought place the origins of meditation within a structured set of practices and strategies. Here are the two main schools of thought. Mediation is often translated as Dhyana or Jana in the oldest written records from around 1500 BCE.

Meditation music was created by whom?

John Cage, Stuart Dempster, Pauline Oliveros, Terry Riley, La Monte Young, and Lawrence Ball all combined meditation with music in the 20th century.
