Transcendental meditation mantras<\/strong> are sounds or sets of words that have no literal meaning. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

A TM Mantra can simply be a single word or a simple short sentence.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Practitioners use these mantras during meditation as a means of “resting” their attention which allows <\/span>the mind to settle into increasingly subtle levels of thinking, and ultimately into silence.<\/span><\/p>

In this article, we’ll explore some useful information on Transcendental meditation and Transcendental meditation mantras and their benefits, processes, purposes, and more…<\/p>

So, let\u2019s jump in!<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Transcendental Meditation<\/strong> is a type of meditation that uses a word or a sound like a mantra in order to transcend the mental ruckus created by the mind. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

In contrast to other types of meditation (which usually focus on gaining more control over the mind), transcendental meditation actually aims to drive the mind inwards to the source of thought.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The mantra acts as a focal point for the awareness to rest upon. This allows the mind to be detached from thoughts that arise from stimuli of the senses.<\/p>

As I said before, the word or sound that is used as a mantra doesn’t have a literal meaning.<\/span> This is because using a word with meaning would keep the mind on the surface (inevitably thinking about the word and its meaning), instead of allowing it to transcend that level of the mind.<\/span><\/p>

The mantra is supposed to be chosen for you by a certified TM Teacher. This is because these certified teachers have been given a selection of mantras which have been passed down through a long line of people over the span of thousands of years. The word or sound will vary from person to person according to age or gender.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

To understand how transcendental meditation works<\/strong>, it would be helpful to look at it with an analogy: Look at your mind as if it was an ocean.<\/span><\/p>

When looking at the surface of the ocean, we can see a lot of activity (waves, storms, rainfall, etc.). However, when taking a dive we can see that in the depths of the ocean, it’s completely silent. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

That\u2019s the true nature of the ocean, active on the surface, but completely silent in its depths.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Our minds are actually quite similar. <\/span>The surface of our mind is active with all the thoughts that arise throughout the day (with its own occasional storms).<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

However, there is also a deeper level of mind. In the depths of our minds, there is a natural calmness and stillness that leads to a natural state of bliss<\/span><\/p>

Some ancient scriptures say that it\u2019s the source of our unbounded creativity, unbounded intelligence, happiness, focus, and clarity.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

However, unfortunately in the fast pace of modern life, we\u2019ve lost access to it. We’re simply stuck up on the surface level of the mind.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Because we discriminatory assign a lot of meaning to the thoughts arising in our minds throughout the day, we unintentionally keep our minds held up on the conceptual or intellectual level of the word.<\/span><\/p>

By focusing on “meaningless” TM mantras during meditation<\/a>, we can reach the depths of our creative and unbounded minds.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The technique for transcendental meditation is actually quite natural and effortless. It is usually practiced for about 15-20 minutes, twice a day, sitting with the eyes closed while using the silent mantra.<\/p>
