The benefits of mantra in meditation practice
By Alvin Alexander. Last updated: January 25 2020
As you progress in your meditation practice, the use of mantra(s) is a powerful way to stay focused all day.
I recall reading that Ram Dass said that even when he is speaking or listening to others, that in the background his mantra is always running in his head: “Ram ... Ram ... Ram.”
In the excellent book, Practicing the Jhanas, I throughout your day that you constantly remember to bring your attention back to the Anapana spot, a spot just under your nose.
