Reciting the Dai Pei Chao ( Buddhist chants)

I have great impression on the citation of the Dai Pei Chao. This chant is for people who is sickly and nearing their end to chant and hold on to belief that it will open up the path to a better world in their next life. In Buddhism, the next life can be anything depending on a person's karma which is the merits, a person have gathered in his or her past lives. It could be higher rank or or rank in life and involves around these different layers of realm until Buddha hood.

When my eldest brother was a devoted Buddhist and when he die of heart attack, a lot of his friends came as well as his Buddhist friends and they recite the Dai Pei Chao . When he was alive, he has been reciting the Dai Pei Chao in his temple sessions. During his wake, one of his wife's sister, who was another devoted Buddhist came a few nights to recite this Dai Pei Chao besides his coffin. We were very curious and we asked her what is the merit in this recitation and she explain that this recitation will bring thousand of Buddhas to open up the path to his next life and for her, she will get good karma for these recitation because of her loving compassion and her good intention. Yes, definitely she will get the merits because her chanting help us to relief our stress during the wake.  The chanting gave a sense of calm , quietness and peace.

The verse of this mantra have been recited by hundred of million people through the centuries and it has been sent to the Universe and entrenched as a echo in the system and it becomes very powerful when you recite the Dai Pei Chao. I do not know how powerful it is but I do know and experience the calmness and the stillness of the mind if I recite this mantra. I want to learn the recitation for this purpose. The meditative purpose to still my mind and enjoy peace.

My purpose is to spread the message for everyone to experience the lesser or greater effect in chanting this mantra.

Namaste.
