Common mental health conditions like anxiety, fear, obsession, irrational behavior, depression, hostility are stumbling blocks in achieving mental well - being and are commonly neglected. India stands at low rank in global happiness index in spite of having a rich heritage of religion, tradition and culture. The common people widely practice multiple modalities like Mantra, Meditation, Prayer, Guided Imagery, listening spiritual discourse, reading religious texts to achieve mental well - being, although having its limited scientific evidence.
