Bhāvanā

Bhāvanā is a term that comes from traditional Hindu and Buddhist spiritual practices. It is used to describe a type of meditation or mindfulness practice in which you focus your mind on a certain idea, feeling, or object. For example, you might focus your mind on a feeling of peace or a spiritual figure like Buddha. By focusing on this idea or object, you are training your mind to be more aware and mindful of the present moment. The goal of bhāvanā is to help you become more deeply connected to the world and your own inner self.
