The above is a mantra. Albeit, not a very good one.

 The word “mantra” is derived from two Sanskrit words. The first is “manas” or “mind,” which provides the “man” syllable. The second syllable is drawn from the Sanskrit word “trai” meaning to “protect” or to “free from.” Therefore, the word mantra in its most literal sense means, “to free from the mind.”

A mantra is a powerful tool that helps to free one the distractions of the mind.
