Mantra Chantspace deepens your mantra meditation practice by blending ancient mantras & Vedic wisdom with modern technology. It is the one-stop intelligent solution for mantra meditation. This is also the first-ever app to include an intelligent Hands-Free Mantra Counter. Our intelligent speech analysis counts user's mantra repetitions, freeing user's mind to immerse deeper, & hands to form powerful mudras during chanting.
Idea Inspiration Story:
My mother is a regular mantra meditation practitioner. She came to realize that she could really feel an amplification in the energy of the mantra & a true sense of elevation, when she joined her hands in Anjali Mudra (Namaste / Prayer position), during her mantra chants.
I researched more into it, & came to know that such Mudras during Jaap were made to amplify the energy of the mantras & seal the energy from mantra meditation.
But she could not join her hands in Anjali Mudra during mantra chants, because her fingers were occupied in counting using a tally or mala.
Upon researching for a solution, I found that while Islam & Buddhism had some apps & even hardware technological solutions for automated hands-free counting of “Tasbih” & “Buddha Mantras”, unfortunately no "working" solution existed for Vedic Mantras.
That's when I realized the potential of this idea, and decided to solve this myself.
Challenges:
It wasn't easy, with most of the speech analysis AI models today focused more around English, very less exists on Sanskrit front. And the real-time accuracy requirements from this use-case made it even more difficult.
Solution:
But I was able to combine my software knowledge alongside old-school Sanskrit Grammar fundamentals, to finally build this solution. This mantra analysis counter uses a combination of AI Speech Recognition model, Sanskrit Grammar fundamentals, and a complex algorithm at the top, to accurately count the mantra repetitions. Moreover, this entire intelligent counting workflow even works offline, when the user might be disconnected from the network.
Current Product :
While I started this to specifically address the hands-free mantra counting problem, I also realized there were several number of mantra meditation, counter, chant-playback, personal-voice playback apps in the market, each trying to solve one or two specific problems. Additionally most of the apps had cluttered / poor UX design, or limited by poor recording performance and other issues. I realized the potential for a one-stop solution to address all of mantra meditation needs in one place with intelligent technology, to evolve the product into a "Complete Mantra Chant Toolkit" with several other features, like AI Mantra Recommendations, Record & Loop your own Mantras (with noise cancellation & amplification), a vast Mantra Library with description, benefits, pronunciation & playback, background music options, customizable app themes for personalized UX experience, favorites & recents for quick access, etc.
Future Plans:
Some of the future feature ideas for the product expansion include,
- Advanced Studio Level Recording for Personal Voice Mantras
- Guided Mantra Chanting for Beginners
- Detailed Astrological Reports & Insights, focused on specific problem or duration, with AI Deep-Research
- Personalized Paath / Chalisa: User trains their voice with 1-2 minute of their recording, thus allowing our AI to create and recite an entire katha / paath (example, Hanuman Chalisa / SundarKaand Path) in user's own voice.
