Meditation refers to a family of self-regulation practices that
focus on training attention and awareness to bring mental processes
under greater voluntary control and thereby foster general mental
development and/or specific capacities such as calm, clarity and
concentration.
Meditation is an english word translated from latin and can be
traced back to prehistoric times older civilization where
repetitive, rhythmic chants offered to appease the gods. References
to meditation with Rishabha in Jainism go back to the prehistoric
age with the Acaranga Sutra dating back to 500 BC. The earliest
written records of meditation date to 1500 BC in Hindu Vedantism.
Around 500 - 600 BC Taoists in China and Buddhists in India then
began to develop meditative practices.
I guess everybody can try to calm their mind by meditation, but
the point is when they meditate and chant, whether amtuofu or
maranatha, they ought to say something they understand or believe.
Calling on Lord Jesus but do not believe in Him, is like seeing a
doctor but don't believe in his advice and refuse to take his
medicine, is simply stupid.
Who create God? first you must believe in the existence of God,
if not, end of story.
Man is created by God, and man return to God in eternity,
end of story.
Born into this world, die and come back again, die and come back
again...that is a never ending story.
That is misunderstanding and misconception that many people like
you have. Buddhism did not preach die and come back again. The
purpose of being a Buddhist is not to come back again unless you
vow that you wish to come back as a Buddha to save others. That
depends on individual vow and not every Buddhists make that kind of
vow.
It is only through Buddha's teachings that you will not come
back again and that is the main objective of Buddha's teaching. If
you did not follow Buddha's teachings on how not to come back
again, you will definitely come back again regardless of your
religion or no religion.
