Listen "AJAHN GEOFF THANISSARO | Blessing Anumodana Pali Chanting | Dhammagiri Sangha"
Episode Synopsis
Tan Ajahn Geoff Ṭhānissaro is leading our Sangha of 8 monks here at Dhammagiri in chanting the blessing and anumodanā before the meal (rejoicing in the good karma of the almsfood donors & sharing good karma with departed relatives).
The blessing is recited in Pali, the original language of the Buddha.
You may notice that it sounds different from the way we recite the blessing in the lineage of Ajahn Chah. As Ajahn Geoff, Ajahn Keng and Ajahn Jiep have ordained and trained in the Dhammayuttika Nikāya, they often recite Pali in the 'Makhot' style, whereas the Mahānikāya monks (including Ajahn Chah lineage) always chant in 'Sangyot' style.
