Does it Matter if One Recites Too Fast or Too Slow?

Pure Land Buddhism

Show Notes

In this episode, we ask the question: Does it matter if I recite Amituofo (Amitabha Buddha) too fast or too slow? The key is to keep constant mindfulness of Amitabha Buddha. So, it's recommended that one practices at a mid-pace as one can then recite for a long time. What is mid-paced may vary for different people, so one can find what's best for oneself. The key is to recite with a sincere heart and to have one-heartedness in our practice.
