Pali and Memorization

Post by lvcas »

Hello,

I'm wondering about Pali chanting and memorization in theravada and if people have specific experience at WPN.

I know there is some basic memorization for anigarika and it seems to get more lengthy for further ordination.

Does anyone have insight into how members prepare for these moments and if there are good resources online. I recently found the chanting karaoke on the Abahyagiri website which is a great resource.

Furthermore, does anyone know what is expected in terms of full ordination and memorization for the morning, evening and patimokkha.

I find memorization rather difficult and has always been somewhat of an anxiety for me in joining the sangha and am just curious how much this might bar me from progressing into ordination etc.

wish i found this forum a long time ago,
really appreciate the supportive environment and all the information i'm finding here.


With Metta,

Lucas
