Buddhism stipulates that monks in temples must recite scriptures, mantras, Buddha's name, or listen to lectures and teachings every morning and evening class. What is the reason for doing this?

Many of the Mahayana Buddhist scriptures are transliterated by Sanskrit . It is difficult for ordinary people to understand these Buddhist scriptures. First of all, you need to read them every day to strengthen your memory. Just like primary school students memorize classical Chinese, you need to memorize them thoroughly! Only by combining the interpretations of the monk or the master can we understand the meaning.

In addition, the main purpose of chanting Buddha’s name, chanting mantras, and chanting Buddha’s name is to constantly repeat and strengthen the correct view of Buddhism! The purpose of doing this is: the first is to practice Buddhism, and the second is to cultivate the mind of "great wisdom and great compassion".

Those who study Buddhism need to purify the six senses and get rid of all distracting thoughts. Everyone in the world has distracting thoughts of anger, greed and distracting thoughts, so there are many troubles and obstacles on the road to practice. Regulating the Buddha's name every day is to overcorrect yourself, the process of self-correction and strengthen the correct view of Buddhism. In addition, chanting the Buddha's name is not only simple and convenient, but also known as the "most supreme method" by great monks and masters of all dynasties. According to Buddhist scriptures, chanting the names of Buddhas in the ten directions, chanting the Buddha's name will destroy the sand of the river and chanting the Buddha's name will increase the blessings of the Buddha's name. In other words, when chanting the Buddha's name, you are also chanting the Buddha's name!

The Heart Sutra says that "all Buddhas of the three ages have attained Anuttara Samyaksambodhi according to Prajna Paramita ", which means that all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the past, present and future have achieved the great wisdom and great compassion of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas because they possess the Prajna wisdom of Buddhism.

So in summary, if Buddhist practitioners want to give better teachings and cultivate greater wisdom and compassion, chanting the Buddha's name and chanting the Buddha's name are the morning and evening classes that must be done every day.
