You'll find similar in monastries and convents, depending on the spirit there. I've experienced it. Something quite beyond the norm. So much so, I didn't want to leave. Hard to explain, but it was like a small piece of heaven.

Where there is a spirit of meditative prayer, there is usually a sense of peace and contentment. Buddists practise to achieve that state, as well as their beliefs that all things in nature are precious and they are extremely gentle people. However, deep states of ongoing meditation and peace are not evidence of truth. Ask the yogis, they're at it all the time. Get people into modern day society with having to stand up for their faith and battle (which is what Christians are called to do), then it is very hard. It is a battle between good and evil, not "feel good" stuff. Most of us are not spending our day in states of meditation or contemplation. Christ came not to bring peace but a sword. in other words, true peace cannot be achieved by compromising just to keep everybody happy. Christ trod on a lot of corns because He did not tickle their ears or buff their egos. Christ Himself lived a hard life. The son of man had nowhere to lay His head. In the climax of His suffering He said "I am a worm". He felt like the lowest of the low. Covered in spittle, beard torn out, enduring insults, scoffing, laughing, He would have resembled a walking wound. They despised Him. None of this sanitised crucifix makeovers we see, He would have been tortured beyond belief. Yet all this was done out of love for us. If anybody felt like a piece of dirt it was Christ. Just imagine not only feeling abandoned by God the Father, but just about every face you see in the crowd as you walk half naked, jeering and spitting at you. I can imagine Christ (being human as well as divine) looking for anybody, a face receiving Him in love/kindness. I think if I'm not mistaken 2-3 people remained at the foot of His cross.

What God out there can claim to have suffered and died such an atrocious death for His people? and then rise again? What God went around healing the sick and raising the dead and giving hope to the poor and wretched? What God can relate to our pains intimately as Christ can? Once I found Christ, there was no other God. He is God.
