Nepali meditation practitioners attend the World Meditation Day event organized by the Government of Nepal in Kathmandu, Nepal, on December 21, 2025. The UN General Assembly proclaims December 21 as World Meditation Day to raise awareness about meditation and its benefits, recalling the right of everyone to the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of physical and mental health. Meditation is an ancient practice that involves focusing one's attention on the present moment. Rooted in religious, yogic, and secular traditions across cultures, meditation is practiced for thousands of years. Today, it is embraced worldwide, transcending its spiritual origins to become a universal tool for personal well-being and mental health. The most recognized definition of meditation generally describes it as a practice where an individual uses techniques such as mindfulness, focused attention, or concentrated thought to train the mind and achieve a state of mental clarity, emotional calmness, and physical relaxation.
