Analytical meditation
Analytical meditation (Skt. vicārabhāvanā; Tib. དཔྱད་སྒོམ་, ché gom, Wyl. dpyad sgom) — the counterpart of settling meditation (Tib. འཇོག་སྒོམ་, jokgom). This refers to the practice of investigation and analysis, undertaken on the basis of the calm of shamatha, in order to bring about insight or vipashyana.
