I meditate to techno and often while busy with a dumb hand task. Meditation isn't the same for everyone and the occasional Ohm or dead silence might not be enough for you.

I think that I am referring to something different from what you are referring to.

What I am referring to is like physical exercise, except with attention.

The term "meditation" has become unspecific and fuzzy in its general usage.

I am using it in the way that the Buddhists and Raja Yogis use it.

I don't think we're talking about different things. I achieve a peaceful state of serenity when emerged in a chaos that distracts the majority of my chaotic energy - then I can focus and indulge in a peaceful calm.

We're going to the same place but taking different roads - neither is better, but some roads are easier for different people to walk.

There is no single right way to meditate.
