Buddhist chanting is a practice in which followers recite sacred texts or mantras, often in a rhythmic and melodic manner. This form of vocal expression is used to focus the mind, cultivate mindfulness, and deepen spiritual understanding. Chanting can be performed individually or in groups, and it often accompanies meditation or rituals. The texts chanted may include passages from the Pali Canon, Sutras, or specific mantras associated with various Buddhist traditions. The practice is believed to help practitioners connect with the teachings of the Buddha and promote a sense of peace and harmony within themselves and their communities.
