“Man”, the first syllable of “mantra”, indicates “mind”, and “tra” means “to free”. The ancient Vedas recommend, especially for the current age, chanting of authentic mantras to free the mind from fear, and to move the self towards itself in self-discovery. The Vedas particularly encourage chanting the Hare Krsna Maha Mantra for self-realization and for purifying our existence. This doctoral dissertation, Effects of the Hare Krsna Maha Mantra on Stress, Depression, and the Three Gunas, is the first study, conducted according to rigorous standards of modern social science, to research the effects of the practice of Maha Mantra meditation.
