Confederation, Eastern Orthodox Christianity and Meditation

[Sacred Fool]

So, to sum it up, why do you think Christianity doesn't have meditation way as Buddhism has?

I can offer you a few thoughts on the topic.

• The Confederation, so called, would naturally be made up of those disposed towards active service because, by definition, they are a self-selected group disposed towards active service.  Their more introverted counterparts are busy offering service by doing more solitary practices.
  
• There is a long tradition of Christian ascetic adepts, from St. Anthony in the Egyptian desert in the early years to Father Grigory Rasputin in more modern times.  Padre Pio also comes to mind and there are many others.
  
• In Buddhism, Christianity and many other religious cults there are always very few adepts and a great many non-adepts.  In that respect, I see no great difference between them.  I think that what you're responding to is that Christianity puts no great emphasis on adepthood and (outside of a few specific orders) offer little specific guidance for attaining such, whereas Indic religions overflow with information about adepts, both positive and negative, as well as methods for gaining such power.
  
• I was under the impression that Russia has a long history of this sort of thing in the area of Siberia, which some presume was influenced by the local shamanic traditions.  This is where Rasputin was said to have learned his craft.  You might be able to track down more information by searching in that direction rather than inquiring of the local priests.
