Mantra and Lotus

Mantra originated in Sanskrit and was developed as a tool for relaxation and calming the mind. Like meditation, mantras are thousands of years old and have been used to influence human consciousness for centuries. Their essence lies in the repetition of a sound that is pleasing to the mind.

In Eastern religions, mantras are used in recitation or meditation (repetition in the mind) and their symbols can have different meanings. One of the most well-known mantras is the Buddhist mantra of compassion Om mani padme húm, which is intended to aid personal development and the path to spiritual enlightenment. No initiation is required to recite this mantra and it can be recited by anyone who feels it will benefit them and help them transform negative emotions.

The lotus flower is often associated with the best human qualities. In Buddhism, the lotus is seen as a symbol of the path to enlightenment.
