Some comments

I watched a beginning of some video that handled meditation in Nepal, at least in the beginning. But Nepal is as far as I know a very Buddhist country, so there was lots of Buddhism and Buddhist doctrine in people's lives and living environment. So it was not like a new beginning when one opens to life and to new things, but more like having gotten used to it and so being in practise like bored. Civilized wisdom like taught in schools and in good quaslity books is what they appeared to need as an addition to their Buddhism: it knows many good answers to what to support in the world and in one's own life, the idea in school is to collect the wisest solutions to be taught to all kids. So it kind of opens to life, like meditation.
Meditation teacher in the video talked about breathing in and out. Like the air escaping from one's nose to the room creates a slight breeze and spreads to the environment, likewise can one's attention slightly touch things, kind of fascinated like breathing in. That is similar to wandering somewhere where there is at least some nature too, coming to new people etc: kind of noticing colours etc, noticing a lot, yet not grasping things intellectually, just enjoying the living like in sports if one happens to like such motion, for exampleletting abicycle roll for a while without pedalling.

I also read something from some Wikipedia article about Buddhism but it seemed to go badly wrong in many places. At least some forms of suffering are results of thinking that the world is rigid like a theory perspective guided by which you live, while it is not and so you are out of tune of what reactions the situation would need. If you would observe better and behave naturally according to the situations it is quite likely that you would not be so much in trouble. Such perspectives are typical when someone else who is young or relies in someone stupid bosses you, for example bacause of being of the same group. It also happens if the one bossing you does not care how you feel. Also if you are in trouble that tends to lift some questions to the front. Only when you find a new approach, like for example a different profession's way of living, it solves other things and leads to a diffeerent situation. So if you choose such changes wisely, it is likely to make you happier. Yet people need some things in their lives and sio having a bigger capacity to observe things and to handle things with wisdom often gives space to maneuver in and so makes you happier. Such capacity can be build upon liking looking and maybe upon having fun in a sports hobby. Also skills in living the wetahrs and admiring the beauty of nature give one a bigger capacity. Since such person is less in trouble he/she can be more peaceful without having needed to choose nonviolence.
