Product Description Use your mantram when you’re ill or anxious, tired or restless, and it will guide you and comfort you like a true friend. The Mantram, or mantra, is a short, powerful, spiritual formula from the world’s great traditions, repeated silently in the mind, anytime, anywhere. Easwaran, the author of Passage Meditation and the best-selling translations of The Bhagavad Gita, The Upanishads and The Dhammapada, taught the use of the mantram for forty years as part of his passage meditation program. The mantram can help you to steady your mind and free it from anxiety, anger or resentment. Easwaran explains how the mantram works, and gives practical guidelines for using it to focus your thoughts and access deeper resources of strength, patience, and love. Review "I have long found the writings of Eknath Easwaran to be models of clarity, simplicity, and practicality." --Andrew Weil, MD From the Inside Flap "The mantram becomes one's staff of life, and carries one through every ordeal." - Mahatma Gandhi From the Back Cover "The mantram works specifically as an antidote to the daily conflicts and intrusions filling our unquiet minds... a guidewire to move attention away from a troubling stream of thoughts. It is as though the mantram provides access to a peaceful, grounded center that puts our cravings, drives, and other immediate needs in perspective."- From the Foreword by Daniel H. Lowenstein, MD, Professor of neurology at the University of California, San Francisco
