Foreword

Lord Buddha’s teachings have been preserved for centuries through

oral transmission by means of recitation. Since the Dhamma were not

recorded in writing, disciples assembled regularly to recite together in

concord. Variations in individual memories were not allowed to obscure

the Buddha’s words. While chanting, devotees contemplate the Dhamma

with peaceful minds, free from other tasks. Chanting also requires deep

concentration. It is part of daily Dhamma practice. Thus, monks in every

monastery routinely assemble to chant the words of the Buddha together

in group recitation.

I am extremely delighted to have this ‘Traditional Pali Chants in

English’ Book. It will permit international Dhamma devotees to take part

in the recitation and to contemplate and help preserve the teachings of the

Buddha. Because of the English translations, the book conveys the meaning

as well as the sound of Lord Buddha’s teachings.

I would like to profoundly thank everyone who participated in

the gargantuan mission to publish this book for their many varied

contributions. I enthusiastically congratulate them all on this extremely

successful achievement. They include Phra Yossaphat Khantidhammo,

Watcharapol Daengsubha and Saranviphat Svetanan, to mention only a

few. May Lord Buddha bless them all for their highly meritorious efforts.
