Chant Your Mantra
Mantra means “mental protection” ( manas, “mind” — tra, “protecting”). A mantra is a tool our mind can use to protect us from our own negative impulses and dark thought-patterns. The Mantra-yoga-saṃhitā defines mantra with a simple aphorism:
मननात्त्रायते इति मन्त्रः
mananāttrāyate iti mantraḥ
A mantra is a thought which brings about salvation.
A mind, left to its own devices, will flit and flicker without aim or end. But a focused and determined mind is one of the most powerful things in the world. Chanting a mantra is a means of training and engaging the mind. It is an active process focusing on the single most important goal: spiritual growth.
यतो यतो निश्चरति मनश्चञ्चलमस्थिरम् ।
ततस्ततो नियम्यैतदात्मन्येव वशं नयेत् ॥
yato yato niścarati
manaścañcalamasthiram ।
tatastato niyamyaitad
ātmanyeva vaśaṃ nayet ॥
Whenever the unsteady mind — moving to and fro — wanders away, the yogi should restrain it and control it in the Self.
प्रशान्तमनसं ह्येनं योगिनं सुखमुत्तमम् ।
उपैति शान्तरजसं ब्रह्मभूतमकल्मषम्
praśāntamanasaṃ hyenaṃ
yoginaṃ sukhamuttamam ।
upaiti śāntarajasaṃ
brahmabhūtamakalmaṣam
The yogi whose mind is peaceful, whose passions are calmed, who is free of evil and has become one with the Supreme Spirit, attains the highest bliss.
— Bhagavad Gītā, VI : 26–27
