Abstract
The most discussed theme in the experimental approach to the study of Buddhism is meditation experience connected with phenomena of alternated states of consciousness. Buddhism is in these cases often identifying with meditation technique, which leads to special states and effects. We can find many studies about meditations and their influence on our health (like for example blood pressure, breathing, therapy etc.). The privileging of Buddhist meditation and experience may well be traced to certain twentieth-century Asian reform movements. Paper will show problems of Buddhist meditation research and its historian connotations, and also will bring partial results from author experiment study on body schema misperception during meditation practice.
