I guess there's actually quite a bit they try to feed me.
But hey, you're probably right—I might have misunderstood. At the end of the day, it really is just a technique.

I honestly have no idea where you guys are pulling these claims from. 😕

Maybe I'm just young and still learning, but that's how they teach it in my religious studies class at school.

Well, if you look at faith in Buddha, it's different. As Christians, we talk to God through prayer, whereas Buddhists might use prayer, meditation, or other practices. I guess it just varies.

From what I understand, for a Christian, it’s mostly just a technique, whereas for Buddhists or followers of other Eastern religions, it seems to be both a practice and a matter of faith.

I tried it once before and it was actually pretty great; I guess it really helped boost my focus for the rest of the day.

It's pretty good for relaxing both the mind and the body, I guess.
