Hi,
Im interested in some of the Pali chants the origins of the chants and with some help with learning how to deepen the translations
I have had a chanting book that is used within the Thai Forest Traditions of Ajhan Chah western Branches
i have found these to be very complete in and of themselves, while many of the suttas are wonderful the chants have direct links with the Pali
Ive been using them for a few years on and off, while the translations are good i feel there is more to them than in standard translations
How important do people think these chants are
Im not a scholar , this is for my own personal meditation, study and reflections, i am not to interested in philosophy and views
Where would be the correct place to start a thread to ask some questions and gain more better understanding of the translations
Thank you all

Re: Hello
Learning Pali would probably be your best bet. I think there is a Pali thread in here somewhere. Edit: There is a whole Pali section
Re: Hello
Welcome!
Liberation is the inevitable fruit of the path and is bound to blossom forth when there is steady and persistent practice. The only requirements for reaching the final goal are two: to start and to continue. If these requirements are met there is no doubt the goal will be attained. This is the Dhamma, the undeviating law.
