Question

The definition of meditation is a consciously directing our attention to alter our state of consciousness.

That could be part of the definition, yes, we're going to try to direct our attention and yes, in a sense we're going to alter our state of consciousness, because most people are in a kind of unaware state of consciousness throughout the day. We're going to take more control.
