Chanting and recitation
Apart from silent mediation, many Buddhist practices involve the vocalization of sacred phrases and syllables. In tantric Buddhisms, this expresses itself through the recitation of mantras and dharanis. In Pure Land Buddhisms, there is an emphasis on reciting the names of specific Buddhas or bodhisattvas.
