Not quite, the mantras may be found in books but are said to originate in the petals of the spinal chakras, (discovered by the ancient Rishis) as such they have magnetic power to attract much like a tuning fork once struck will induce the same vibration in the other and thru the power of attraction transcending is made possible. Once you have 'transcended' a certain amount, and the channels are open, the mind is spontaneously drawn within to pure anandam. True all you have to do is sit but don't forget Chitta/Vritti/Niroda...tut, tut. :=)
