| Abstract: |
In recent years, the increasing prevalence of anxiety and diminished life satisfaction among Indian youths has stimulated a growing interest in alternative and contemplative practices that promote mental wellness. One such practice—regular mantra chanting—has been recognized as a powerful meditative technique rooted in ancient Indian spiritual traditions, particularly within Hinduism and Buddhism. This article explores the psychological correlates of regular mantra chanting, emphasizing its role in reducing anxiety levels and enhancing overall quality of life among young individuals. Drawing upon theoretical frameworks such as mindfulness theory, neuroplasticity, and the relaxation response, the study delineates how repetitive vocal or mental recitation of mantras induces measurable cognitive, emotional, and neurophysiological changes. The practice facilitates attentional focus, emotional regulation, and parasympathetic nervous system activation—mechanisms associated with calmness and mental clarity. Empirical evidence and simulated data demonstrate a negative correlation between chanting frequency and anxiety scores and a positive relationship between chanting duration and life satisfaction. Insights from psychologists like William James and Herbert Benson, as well as spiritual leaders such as Swami Vivekananda and the Dalai Lama, reinforce that rhythmic sound repetition harmonizes mind-body functions, enhances self-awareness, and cultivates resilience against psychological distress. The findings highlight that, beyond religiosity, mantra chanting serves as a secular, accessible intervention for promoting youth mental wellness in India’s rapidly changing sociocultural environment. This integrative approach—bridging ancient wisdom with modern psychology—suggests that regular mantra chanting may contribute significantly to emotional stability, cognitive balance, and life satisfaction, positioning it as a valuable tool in contemporary mental health interventions targeted at young adults. |
