Bhavana is a Pali and Sanskrit term meaning "cultivation," "development," or "bringing into being," commonly used in Buddhism to refer to mental training, often translated as meditation. It focuses on intentionally developing positive mental states, wisdom, and tranquility rather than just quiet contemplation.
