Original Note:
Meditation (or Yoga) is deeply rooted in Hindu philosophy. Saying otherwise is civilizational erasure and spiritual theft. Earliest mention of meditation is in Rigveda, widely considered to be one of the oldest, if not the oldest, written text by humans. https://www.artofliving.org/in-en/yoga/beginners/brief-history-yoga https://spiritualout.com/historical-roots-of-hindu-meditation/
