Thought-relaxation: If you check google, it's like the "blue screen of death" when using certain operating systems. That aside, "guru" is the term for a teacher or master, and meditation is simply defined as to spending time in quiet thought for religious purposes or relaxation. The meditations to consider these days is within the practice of mindfulness, which is easily learned and applied, and remarkably effective.
