The [[word]] '''contemplation''' comes from the [[Latin]] root templum (from [[Greek]] temnein: to cut or divide). It means separating something from its [[environment]] and enclosing it in a sector. Contemplation is the [[Latin]] [[translation]] of Greek '[[theory]]' (theoria). In a [[religious]] sense it is usually a [[type]] of [[prayer]] or [[meditation]].
