Ruminants have a fore-stomach with four chambers. These are the rumen, reticulum, omasum, and abomasum. The verb to ruminate has been extended metaphorically to mean to thoughtfully ponder or to meditate on some topic. Similarly, ideas may be chewed on or digested. Chew the (one's) cud is to reflect or meditate.
