Begin with the mantra! Go straight to the essence with the Hare Krishna maha mantra – proclaimed as the most efficient and wholesome mantra for meditation by the ancient yoga and meditation texts, the Vedas.
You receive it by simply reading it out loud.
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna
Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
Hare Rama Hare Rama
Rama Rama Hare Hare.
To enhance your experience and learn the correct pronunciation, listen to Srila Prabhupada, the foremost spiritual master of Hare Krishna mantra meditation in our times.
This is the heart of mantra meditation. You should clearly hear each word you vibrate. (You can even chant along with the track of the maha-mantra below).
Keep delicately bringing your mental focus back to the sound vibration. Do not be disturbed if your thoughts wander but just come back to the mantra.
Keep going with the mantra for as long as you want, but try initially to give yourself at least 5 minutes. Then, when you are ready to stop, take a few deep breaths, relax and offer gratitude to the divine for your experience.
That’s it!
You’ve Done It!
If you followed the instructions above and meditated on the Hare Krishna mantra a few times, you have already planted a little spiritual seed in your consciousness. Though you may not feel its effect yet (or maybe you already do!), with regular practice you will experience its incredible impact on all aspects of your life.
We have put together practical resources, courses and coaches to help you go deeper and get more value from mantra meditation. Get started now, at no cost!
