Religious chants are repetitive vocal expressions used in various spiritual practices to enhance meditation, prayer, or worship. These chants often consist of sacred words or phrases, which can be in different languages, such as Sanskrit, Latin, or Arabic. They serve to create a sense of connection to the divine and can be found in many religions, including Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity, and Islam. The rhythmic and melodic nature of religious chants can induce a calming effect, helping practitioners focus their minds and deepen their spiritual experience. In some traditions, such as Gregorian chant in Christianity or mantras in Hinduism, these chants are performed in groups or individually, often accompanied by instruments or simple melodies to enhance their impact.
