During his stay at Sāsanārakkha Buddhist Sanctuary (SBS), Taiping, Malaysia, Ajahn Dhammasiha was kindly giving permission to make this recording of their Friday Morning Chanting.
SBS has a comprehensive training program for bhikkhus (Buddhist monks). In order to cover a wide range of chants for the monks to gradually master, both morning and evening chanting move through a roster of various chants. This recording covers the Friday morning chants, in particular including the Mātikā and Vipassana-Bhūmi chants traditionally recited at funerals. Some of the chants are also done in English language.
Bhante Ariyadhammika, the Sanghapariṇāyaka of SBS (leading senior monk/teacher/preceptor), personally leads the chanting.
The resident sangha here chants with a very powerful deep bass voice, in fact the most bass chanting style I have encountered anywhere in Theravada monasteries so far 🗣. Even with the limitations caused by my mobile recording equipment, you will notice the deep bass if you use good round-the-ear headphones 🎧, or large loudspeakers 🔊 .
(The build-in speakers in mobile phones or even tablets woun't be able to convey the bass fully - but it's still a nice morning puja to listen to 🙂 )
If your interested to learn more about the actual meaning of what is chanted, you can download the full version of the SBS Chanting Book, in Pali + English translations, as a PDF File (about 8MB) here:
