samatha
''Samatha'' (Pāli), (Sanskrit: शमथ, ''śamatha'' is the Buddhist practice (''bhavana'') of the calming of the mind (''citta'') and its 'formations' (''sankhara''). This is done by practicing single-pointed meditation most commonly through mindfulness of breathing. ''Samatha'' is common to all Buddhist traditions.
==Etymology==
The Tibetan term for ''samatha'' is ''shyiné'' (). According to Jamgon Kongtrul, insight may be garnered by an exegesis of the etymology of ''śamatha'' and ''shyiné'':
The semantic field of ''shi'' and ''shama'' is "pacification", "the slowing or cooling down", "rest".〔Ray, Reginald A. (Ed.)(2004). ''In the Presence of Masters: Wisdom from 30 Contemporary Tibetan Buddhist Teachers''. Boston, Massachusetts, USA: Shambhala. ISBN 1-57062-849-1 (pbk.: alk. paper) p.69.〕 The semantic field of ''né'' is "to abide or remain" and this is cognate or equivalent with the final syllable of the Sanskrit, ''thā''.〔Ray, Reginald A. (Ed.)(2004). ''In the Presence of Masters: Wisdom from 30 Contemporary Tibetan Buddhist Teachers''. Boston, Massachusetts, USA: Shambhala. ISBN 1-57062-849-1 (pbk.: alk. paper) p.70.〕
