I’ve been a Buddhist for 10+ years & have always shied away from chanting, but after listening to a variety of Buddhist chants in a variety of languages, including English, I think that was far too hasty a decision. Chanting as an aid to developing concentration is woefully under-appreciated by Western Buddhists like me who came to Buddhism via the insight meditation tradition, I think. I will definitely be trying this practice for myself!
@annedraya I have been a Buddhist since I was born but yeah, chanting is my one of my fav parts! It's relaxing (to me) and I find myself calming down every time!
