How to Mantra Meditation | Free Version | Simple Explanation for Beginners

Learn the easy way to meditate with a mantra. Simple instructions explain how to choose a mantra and calm your mind.

1. Find a quiet place where you won't be interrupted. You don't need a Zen garden - hiding from your children in a closet works just fine. You can also pop in ear buds and play some white noise to drown out distractions if needed.

2. Feel free to sit on the floor, sit in a chair or lean against a wall - whatever is comfortable for you.

3. Try to reserve some time to practice meditation in the morning and evening. 20 minute sessions are ideal - but probably not realistic for everyday - so just try to fit in as much time as possible.

4. Be realistic and patient. You won't notice any amazing results from your first session but the more often you practice the mantra meditation, the easier it will be to slip into a relaxed state. Also, know that it's normal to have some rough sessions. Everyone has days when they are too stressed or distracted to peacefully meditate. Just keep going and you'll get back on track.

5. Subscribe to this channel. Seriously, it's good karma and you'll stay updated with my newest videos and resources. Lots more in development.

The key is not to try. Relax, repeat the mantra when you’re aware of thoughts, come back to the mantra. It’s magic. Trust me. Saved my life.

Finally someone talking about mantras who isnt a lunatic or an asshole or borh. Thank you.

[boydegg]

Finally!!!! I spent HOURS yesterday watching videos to try and find a simple explanation like this. No waffle. No 'click the link to find out how'. THANKS so much.

In India, mantra meditation includes 5 steps:
1) Repeat the mantra in a normal voice for several 20-minute sessions until no more distracting thoughts arise. Feel free to repeat faster to prevent other thoughts from entering your mind.
2) Then repeat the mantra in a whisper for several session until it occupies your entire mind. Repeat faster if necessary.
3) The mantra will then be repeated mentally as many times as necessary to occupy your full attention.
4) If you mentally repeat your mantra each day as often as possible, it will eventually repeat itself automatically without any voluntary effort.
5) Finally, the mantra will fade away and be replaced by a state of full awareness.

But you can just apply step 1 for 5 minutes followed by step 3 for about 20 minutes. This should help you to hold the mantra mentally without being disturbed by any thoughts.

1. Choose your mantra, a mantra is a very specific word or phrase (even a sound or a vibration) but with no meaning, ‘cause if you think about the meaning you can’t transcend, after you choose your mantra close your eyes.

2. Repeating your mantra inside your head, silently.

3. Doing it for 15-20 minutes twice a day, I recomend to do it after breakfast and one hour before the dinner.

This is are the rules for transcendental meditation, so you can save your money from expensive and useless teachers. They said “It’s a very easy technique” or “anyone can do it”, so if anyone can do it, why I have to spend thousands of dollars? C’mon you can do it by yourself.

I did a full course with a TM instructor and this fundamental instruction was lost to me in the class. One 2 minute video explained it in perfect detail!

Mantra recommendation: "I just saved myself a lot of money.... I just saved myself a lot of money...."

[rayyanahmad]

Watched dozens of video and only understood this once. Thanks

[garymoore]

Your mind will never be empty but you will reach a point where there is a gap between thoughts and that's all that's necessary! The gap is what your shooting for....

[spietato]

Finally someone who knows how it works and explains it easy and straightforward.
Thank youuu.

[lorddread]

I can't believe you just costed a business organization several $2, 000 fees totalling to more than several millions. Good for you!

[donutsrmybbies]

Thank you for this video. I was so taken hearing people online describe TM and its benefits, but everyone was always tight-lipped about how you actually acquire a mantra or start practicing in the first place. When I looked up TM's website and saw they have a paywall, I gagged. Mental elevation and enlightenment should be accessible!

[lenaf]

Thanks, Peter! That's a nice, no-BS explanation. Will try it :)

[geovaniraffaelli]

Very good video. I find that an often unmentioned benefit of mantra is the ability to whisper or vocalize it once your mind starts wandering from the mental recitations. It gives a powerful feeling of stability until you're back on track.

[fermageehamilton]

To anyone who’s new to this meditation pick a mantra for you only and don’t share it….just like in movie Inception where the dreamer has their own totem that only they know it’s weight and how it moves so they know if they are dreaming or not. This video is brilliant and it WORKS 👍☘️

[n.sundari]

[SupersonicFlyTV]

FINALLY someone did EXPLAIN. All I heard upon asking the question "how"- it's good, has it's benefits, what happens in the brain etc. I even went to a seminar where a woman was literally selling a secret mantra for each participant. Let's not kid ourselves - knowledge is simple, but someone wants to make a buck. Thanx again

[Alan-bzed]

Thank you - honest, simple and helpful without trying to profit. Cheers!
