Inscription
of musical text
|
For those who can read musical notes,
inscription above can serve as a guide for pronouncing of daimoku, the
mantra. (I suppose it will not be an obstacle because
texts of mantra is in Serbian; just switch 'j' by 'y'.) |
Pronouncing
of the mantra
|
Daimoku should be understandable,
clear, when it is performed collectively loud enough, but not too load.
Tempo should be moderate, rhythm equalized, steady and articulated. When
it is performed in the group, it should be that everyone is able to hear
that one who is leading (gongyo or/and daimoku). - If you heard, for example,
that daimoku should be like a roar of the lion, bear in mind that it relates
to description of inner state (of mind, spirit), in order to avoid outscreaming
around. Quality of daimoku depends, hence, from the state of mind, spirit,
in which daimoku is pronounced. |
Sound
|
Words nam and myo
are merged during pronunciation, so that they sounds as namyo.
How sounds once pronounced
daimoku you can hear here. If you save this file
(.wav) on the disk and reproduce it under option "loop" (infinite repeating)
you'll have quite straight picture how daimoku (repetition of mantra) looks. |
