Doesn't seem specific enough. Meditation could plausibly be a prerequisite for every single one of the cinematic martial arts skills!
Besides, the reasoning for hypnosis seems to be "I'm making myself invisible by controlling other people's minds so they don't pay attention to me; Hypnotism is the skill of controlling other people's minds; so this is a specialized application of Hypnotism." But Meditation is the skill of controlling
one's own mind, if anything. The connection's far less easy to make. I mean, "I'm going to control my own mind so I don't pay attention to myself"?
