I’d say when I use the word meditation it includes the word introspection. You can’t meditate without introspection. Now when I say introspection, it means to give complete attention to something – to an idea or to a form or to an icon or to an image or even to a sound. It is to give what you call Shraddha – the complete attention to something. This is known as introspection, which means one is exclusively thinking and unraveling the different layers of one’s own mind.
