      A mantra is something you say, a sentence or something that you repeat, that sticks in your mind. In lucid dreaming you use a mantra to plant ideas into your subconcious. Like saying "Tonight I will have a lucid dream" over and over again for about 10 mins before you go to sleep can improve chances of having a lucid dream. In that case "Tonight I will have a lucid dream" would be a mantra.

      Im not sure if that is exactly the definition but that is what they mean to do with lucid dreaming.

      Yeah that's basically it. If you repeat it over and over again you get in the habit of doing it and sometimes you'll do it while your dreaming and all the sudden think WTF this is a dream.
      157 is a prime number. The next prime is 163 and the previous prime is 151, which with 157 form a sexy prime triplet. Taking the arithmetic mean of those primes yields 157, thus it is a balanced prime.

      in meditation mantras are commonly used to keep your mind from chattering. for instance repeating "oooooooouuuuuuuuummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm".
