The definition and meaning of mantra is extracted from the home page of Journey through Timeless India, by Nancy Freeman Patchen

" I found India to be more than I ever imagined. On my initial trip, I had planned to stay for four months. I ended up staying for two years. During that journey, I spent six months in an ashram studying Vedanta (Hindu philosophy) and Sanskrit. However, the highlight of the trip was traveling from city to city with an enlightened Guru from whom I received many answers to my burning questions about life. As a result of that trip, I wrote the book, Journey of a Master, which is a comprehensive biography of Swami Chinmayananda. After several short trips, I returned again for a major stay of three years at the end of 1989. At that time, I served as a volunteer editor of Tattva Loka, the prestigious spiritual magazine, published by the Shringeri Matha in south India."
