Mantra is an album by New York City hardcore punk band Shelter.

[5][6] Lyrically the album focuses mainly on Hare Krishna religious philosophy and social commentary on Western civilization — including a manifesto entitled Supersoul in the album's booklet, authored by band's frontman Ray Cappo.

Mantra was distributed in Brazil featuring two bonus tracks, expanding the listing from 11 to 13.

[7] Trouser Press wrote that Cappo "is an articulate and principled spokesman for transcendental thought set to a tough 4/4 beat.

"[5] In a retrospective review, Ox-Fanzine called Mantra "a tame rock album from another time.
