Oh yes, here we come: Guided meditation through VR! Westernize meditation too.

How about going outside to meditate in nature? What happened to that? :/ Do it while you still can, as we have not completely destroyed our planet yet.

I thought meditation historically has mostly happened in seclusion from nature, in temples, monasteries, bedrooms, etc. Going indoors to sit in meditation isn't a "Western" phenomenon!

Westernization is a "process whereby societies come under or adopt Western culture". It does not necessarily have to happen in the West.

Anyway, these monasteries are actually on mountains or deep in the forest for a good reason, so not exactly in seclusion from nature. Buddha himself is said to have attained Bodhi under the Bodhi Tree. Meditation and nature are strongly tied to each other. Are you trying to suggest that it is not the case? It definitely did not happen "in seclusion from nature", that would be not only counterproductive, but it is historically incorrect.

Meditation and nature are not tied at all. All you need for meditation is your brain. You can meditate in your basement, on an airplane or under a tree.

Maybe you are confusing the mindful meditation with the spiritual meditation?

I did not say that you cannot, however it is more difficult to do so, especially for a beginner, because of over-stimulation from the environment. Of course there are many ways of doing it and with different intentions. I said that meditation historically did not actually happen in seclusion from nature.
