Christian meditation and Eastern meditation differ in several key ways. First and foremost, Christian meditation focuses on engaging with God through prayer and Scripture, while Eastern meditation seeks to empty the mind and detach from worldly concerns.
Christian meditation also differs from Eastern meditation in terms of its goals. While Eastern meditation may aim to achieve a state of enlightenment or inner peace, Christian meditation seeks to deepen one’s relationship with God and grow in faith and love.
Another difference is that Christian meditation often involves the use of specific scripture passages, sacred words, or prayers, while Eastern meditation may use mantras or other techniques to still the mind.
Despite these differences, both forms of meditation can be powerful tools for reducing stress, promoting relaxation, and finding inner peace.  However, for Christians, Christian meditation offers a unique opportunity to connect with God and experience the transformative power of His Word.
