Mindfulness is the practice of awareness, a factor on the path to
enlightenment. Mindfulness practice is inherited from the */Buddhist
tradition/*. Buddhism makes use of mantras, so by your logic
mindfullness is not meditation? Go figure.
This sounds almost exactly like TM:
"When practicing mindfulness, for instance by watching the breath, one
must remember to maintain attention on the chosen object of awareness,
"faithfully returning back to refocus on that object whenever the mind
wanders away from it." - B. Allen Wallace
