关于冥想的学术讨论所面临的有据可查的担忧之一是语义结构过多以及缺乏统一的定义和分类。近年来，为了对冥想方法进行定义和分类，人们进行了几次值得注意的尝试来制定新的词典。虽然这些结构很有用并且得到了不同程度的接受，但它们也受到了误解和争论，导致该领域缺乏共识的范式。本文试图通过提出两种新模型来影响这一正在进行的讨论，这两种模型具有增强科学可靠性和接受度的潜力。关于寻求普遍接受的分类法，我们建议进行范式转变，远离从第一人称视角制造新术语的规范。作为替代方案，我们提出了一种新的分类系统，该系统基于历史上已确立且普遍接受的第三人称情感和认知范式，部分借鉴了心理和认知科学。关于难以捉摸的定义问题，我们提出了一种冥想模型，该模型明确区分“方法”和“状态”，并将其概念化为一个动态过程，包含六个相关但不同的阶段。总体目标是为研究人员提供一个可靠的术语，用于对不同的冥想方法进行分类和分类，以及一个概念框架，为他们的研究提供方向，为他们的发现提供理论基础。
One of the well-documented concerns confronting scholarly discourse about meditation is the plethora of semantic constructs and the lack of a unified definition and taxonomy. In recent years there have been several notable attempts to formulate new lexicons in order to define and categorize meditation methods. While these constructs have been useful and have encountered varying degrees of acceptance, they have also been subject to misinterpretation and debate, leaving the field devoid of a consensual paradigm. This paper attempts to influence this ongoing discussion by proposing two new models which hold the potential for enhanced scientific reliability and acceptance. Regarding the quest for a universally acceptable taxonomy, we suggest a paradigm shift away from the norm of fabricatIng new terminology from a first-person perspective. As an alternative, we propose a new taxonomic system based on the historically well-established and commonly accepted third-person paradigm of Affect and Cognition, borrowed, in part, from the psychological and cognitive sciences. With regard to the elusive definitional problem, we propose a model of meditation which clearly distinguishes “method” from “state” and is conceptualized as a dynamic process which is inclusive of six related but distinct stages. The overall goal is to provide researchers with a reliable nomenclature with which to categorize and classify diverse meditation methods, and a conceptual framework which can provide direction for their research and a theoretical basis for their findings.
