A community of meditation

I was thinking yesterday about meditation's place within community when I was doing yoga. I thought about why I continued to go to Yoga even though I knew quite a bit of the routine. It somehow felt better to me that I was doing it with other people even though I was not necessarily engaged by the people around me. It is the same phenomenon that can be linked to prayer and praise. While you all might have your prayer to a higher being, it somehow feels better when there are others around you performing the same action. I think it is the same logic that permeates a moment of silence in a crowd. I just find it unique that people can be joined in a community even when they aren't necessarily engaging one another.

Food for thought...
