Mantra Meditation

So I wanted to share a wonderful gift I received on Sunday. I went to the Nyigma Institute which chants a mantra from 5-5:45pm. The mantra was the most beautiful thing I have ever heard. I think it is b/c a lady with a very soothing voice led/sang the mantra. Repeating it for 45 minutes placed a lot of peace and warmth in my heart. It was like receiving a big hug from my mom for 45 minutes! Mantras are really nice b/c you can take them with you wherever you go. For example, when I am thinking too much I just sort of sing the beautiful mantra in my head and I am quickly brought back to a very peaceful place in myself. I couldn't find the mantra I listened to on the internet, but I found one on youtube that is very nice.
