Etymology

The concept of mantras originated in ancient India, where they were used in various spiritual and religious practices. The word 'mantra' itself is derived from Sanskrit and is a combination of 'man,' which means 'mind,' and 'tra,' which means 'tool' or 'instrument.' Mantras have been an integral part of Hinduism, Buddhism, and other Eastern religions for centuries, and their use has spread to other parts of the world as well.
