“Chanting a mantra at the beginning of your meditation helps you clear the mind and takes you deep within the self. Chanting a mantra at the end of meditation helps you seal the meditation. It helps you bring the awareness of the meditation down into your daily life.” MindEndsSelfHelpingClearMeditationAwarenessBuddhismDaily LifeSealsMantrasDeep WithinChanting Author:Frederick Lenz
“Aum is the most powerful of all mantras. It is good to chant Aum seven or more times before and after each meditation. Chanting "Aum" puts you in harmony with the vibration of Eternity.

“Chanting Hare Krishna is really the same sort of thing as meditation, but I think it has a quicker effect. I mean, even if you put your beads down, you can still say the mantra or sing it without actually keeping track on your beads.” IfsThinkingMeanStillsMeditationEffectsTrackKrishnaMantrasBeadsHaresChantingHare Krishna Author:George Harrison
“One of the main differences between silent meditation and chanting is that silent meditation is rather dependent on concentration, but when you chant, it's more of a direct connection with God.” DifferencesMeditationDirectConnectionsSilentDependentConcentrationChantingSilent Meditation Author:George Harrison
“Chanting Hare Krishna is a type of meditation that can be practiced even if the mind is in turbulence. You can even be doing it and other things at the same time. That's what's so nice. In my life there's been many times the mantra brought things around. It keeps me in tune with reality, and the more you sit in one place and chant, the more incense you offer to Krishna in the same room, the more you purify the vibration, the more you can achieve what you're trying to do, which is just trying to remember God, God, God, God, God, as often as possible.” IfsTryingMindRealityRememberRoomsNiceMeditationAchieveTypeOffersTunesVibrationsKrishnaMantrasHaresChantingIncenseTurbulenceHare Krishna Author:George Harrison
“Life is like a piece of string with a lot of knots tied in it. The knots are the karma you're born with from all your past lives, and the object of human life is to try and undo all those knots. That's what chanting and meditation in God consciousness can do. Otherwise you simply tie another ten knots each time you try to undo one knot. That's how karma works.” TryingHumansPastLife IsCan DoBornConsciousnessPiecesMeditationObjectsTenKarmaHuman LifeTiesStringsTiedOur PastYour PastLife Is LikeKnotsPast LifeChanting Author:George Harrison

“It is not a question of sitting silently, it is not a question of chanting a mantra. It is a question of understanding the subtle workings of the mind. As you understand those workings of the mind a great awareness arises in you, which is not of the mind. That awareness arises in your being, in your soul, in your consciousness.” MindSoulUnderstandingConsciousnessMeditationAwarenessSittingAriseYour SoulSubtleMantrasChanting Author:Rajneesh
