What is the difference between Primordial Sound Meditation and breathing awareness meditations?
I consider both of these practices to be classical practices of meditation. There are two main types of classical meditations, one is breath-based and the other is mantra-based. For breathing awareness meditation the breath is the point of focus and for mantra practices a sound utilized silently (usually) is the point of focus in the meditation. Both of these can be effective practices, but I personally find that the mantra serves as an anchor helping the new meditator more easily go within.
