Meditation is a mental discipline by which one attempts to get beyond the conditioned, "thinking" mind into a deeper state of relaxation or awareness. Meditation often involves turning attention to a single point of reference. It is recognized as a component of almost all religions, and has been practiced for over 5,000 years.[1][2][3] It is also practiced outside religious traditions. Different meditative disciplines encompass a wide range of spiritual and/or psychophysical practices which may emphasize different goals -- from achievement of a higher state of consciousness, to greater focus, creativity or self-awareness, or simply a more relaxed and peaceful frame of mind.

The word meditation originally comes from the Indo-European root med-, meaning "to measure."[4][5] From the root med- are also derived the English words mete, medicine, modest, and moderate. It entered English as meditation through the Latin meditatio, which originally indicated every type of physical or intellectual exercise, then later evolved into the more specific meaning "contemplation."

Eastern meditation techniques have been adapted and increasingly practiced in Western culture. [6]

The photo was taken in my village at the top of the Santo Amaro hill.
The statue overlooks the village.
The person sitting in the center is my sister.
Although I slightly revived the colors with PHOTOFILTRE, the sky was as intensily colorful as we see here.

Thank you for viewing and a very nice day to all.

Olá Lurdes
Excelentes silhuetas e cores fantásticas numa composição ao mesmo tempo forte (nos contratstes) e harmoniosa (nas linhas onduladas). Excelente atmosfera, como sugere em título propícia à meditação. Parabéns.

Hello Lurdes !

It seems as though St. Amaro is the Higher Power of the person meditating; is this a self portrait? A very spiritual capture…
Lovely sky colours.
Thanks for sharing,

Ola Lurdes
Wonderful colours which really work against the deep blacks in this image. Perfect sharpness and POV, TFS
