The advantages of chakra-based meditation as compared to the silent meditation is that it leads to the quicker emptiness of the mind.
One can realise GOD through meditation / concentration on GOD.
Different religions understand meditation prayer in different ways. But meditation is silence and contemplation, and prayer is communicating with God. When you put them both together, meditation prayer is communicating with God not through hymns, chanting and actions, it is praying to God in silence. It is introspecting and becoming conscious of God's Divine presence within. God lives in the temple of our heart and meditation prayer is trying to talk to that God that is within, not the God that is in a temple or church or somewhere far away. Therefore meditation prayer is the most effective form of prayer. It is prayer that not only talks to God but also listens to God. Then we feel the presence of the Divine, we become conscious of the Divine within us.
Meditation is a kind of mental discipline which one get beyond the reflexive thinking mind into the deeper state of relaxation or awareness. Prayer is an act of addressing a god or spirit for the purpose of worshiping and petition. The two has different role in our life, when we are praying we ask God for something and during meditation, God speak to us through our soul and mind.
Descartes' proof of God in Meditation 3 is based on the idea that since he has the concept of a perfect and infinite being in his mind, and he himself is imperfect and finite, this concept must have originated from a perfect and infinite being, which he calls God.

Yes.. Meditation is Common for all humans.. any person can meditate or at some point of time in life every person meditates unknowingly in day to day life.Saint Teresa of Avila defined Christian meditation as follows:"By meditation I mean prolonged reasoning with the understanding, in this way. We begin by thinking of the favor which God bestowed upon us by giving us His only Son; and we do not stop there but proceed to consider the mysteries of His whole glorious life."[12]Gospel of Matthew, c. 1700.Quoting the Gospel of Matthew[11:27]:"No one knows the Father but only the Son and anyone whom the Son wants to reveal him" and I Corinthians[2:12]: "But we have received the Spirit who is from God so that we may realize what God has freely given us",theologian Hans von Balthasar explained the context of Christian meditation as follows:"The dimensions of Christian meditation develop from God's having completed his self-revelation in two directions: Speaking out of his own, and speaking as a man, through his Son, disclosing the depths of man.... And this meditation can take place only where the revealing man, God's Son, Jesus Christ, reveals God as his Father: in the Holy Spirit of God, so we may join in probing God's depths, which only God's Spirit probes."[13]
