Dhamma Chanting

This class happens Every Sundays at 8:00 PM PST; in Cambodia is Monday at 10:00 AM.

Our focus is to help Khmer Buddhists learning how to read and chant Khmer Pāli as it is traditionally chanted at the temple/monastery or in any Buddhist ceremony.

Students will also be able to understand the meaning and relationship between the chanting and the ritual practices within Khmer Buddhism. As there are many forms and styles of Khmer Buddhist chanting, the instructor – venerable Theavy Sok, provides every angle of Khmer traditional chanting such as Smot (rhythmic chanting) which has been used in various ways to fit in the different ceremonies.

Zoom is the platform we use to provide the class, if you wish to register to this class at anytime you’re always welcome to.
