Mantra Meditation involves repeating a pure sound vibration known as a mantra. The goal of this repetition is inner peace – harmony of mind, body, and soul. Mantra Meditation enables one to concentrate their energies, which are often wasted due to attention on vast amounts of exterior impressions. These practices were established many years ago by Yogis and seers in their meditation. Mantras were created in higher states of consciousness and were used by the wise to achieve their desires.

In practice "japa-mala" or japa beads are used. These are a strand of beads carved from the sacred tulasi tree, or other woods, or seeds such as Rudraksha beads. Other materials such as crystal, jewels, gold, or silver are also used but these are generally used for mantras to gain material wealth. The strand contains 108 beads as 108 is a holy number.

At the top of the strand a unique bead exists. This bead is not used for chanting. Beginning from the first bead the bead is gently rolled between the thumb and middle finger while the mantra is repeated. The repetitions are chanted one per bead until the unique bead is reached. Using beads helps the concentration and helps to dissipate nervous energy.

A strong Vedic principle about chanting mantras is "the more done, the more benefits we will receive". If one has extreme problems or they want to profoundly alter their karma, mantras can be performed for longer periods of time on a daily basis.
