How to Begin a Daily Mantra Practice

A simple mantra practice can become a meaningful part of daily sadhana. Choose a quiet place where you can sit comfortably and give your attention to the mantra without unnecessary distractions.

1. Begin with intention

Take a few calm breaths and set a sincere intention for your practice.

2. Choose a mantra

Select a mantra that you feel connected to and learn its pronunciation and meaning.

3. Find a steady rhythm

Repeat the mantra slowly and attentively. You may practise silently or aloud according to your tradition and personal preference.

4. Stay present

When your attention wanders, gently return it to the sound, meaning, and rhythm of the mantra.

5. End with stillness

After chanting, sit quietly for a few moments and allow the practice to settle.

A note on tradition

Mantra practices differ across Hindu traditions and lineages. Approach them with respect, sincerity, and awareness of the tradition from which a particular mantra comes.

Sacred Insight
