About this app

Buddhist Chants are the best and proven way to calm your mind and soul. Pirith is the Sinhala word for paritta (in Pali), which means protection. "It protects one from all directions", is the traditional definition. This is the recitation or chanting of the word of the Buddha. As an asseveration, it can be done individually or as a group. Originally this recitation was initiated as a simple avowal of truth or the invoking of blessings through the power of the internal virtues of a person; then, as the extolling of the infallible virtues of the Triple Gem. Now, it has become a prophylactic and ritualistic function of Buddhists to ward off all sorrows, (sabba dukkha) ailments, (sabba roga), and all fears ( sabba bhaya). This is a kind of chanting ceremony. It is a Buddhist tradition that different chanting ceremonies are held in different countries specifically in order to ward off illness, fear, and danger from evil spirits, and to invoke the blessings of the Triple Gem for protection. Thus, Pirith is now regarded as a safeguard against fear and malady.
