Formerly, when Bhadrika chanted hymns, the clear reverberation reached the Śuddhāvāsa heaven; when Śākyamuni entered absorption, the harp song resounded in the stone chamber. Gardens, forests, towers, and pavilions are Dharma gates for entering the dharmadhātu; sounds, voices, words, and speech are buddha-activities that accomplish the Buddhist principle. The Vinayamātṛkā says: 'The Buddha told the monks, "I permit you to chant hymns."' Hymns are words of vocal speech. The Sarvāstivāda-vinaya says: 'It causes the devas, hearing the hymn, to rejoice in their hearts.' Or using musical dancers, conches, cymbals, pipes, and flutes, generating a joyful mind to make various offerings. The Saddharmapuṇḍarīka Sūtra says: 'If one has people play music, / Beating drums, blowing horns and chanting hymns, / Flutes, panpipes, harps, konghous, / Pīpās, cymbals, and bronze gongs— / Such multitude of sublime sounds, / All offered up in worship; / Or with a joyful mind, / Singing hymns in praise of the Buddha's virtue, / Even with a single small sound, / All have already accomplished the Buddha path.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.66](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2017.2.66) - [Next: 2.68](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2017.2.68) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2017.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2017~en-mt.2.67) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [法苑珠林](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.36.131) — 道世, Classical Chinese - [添品妙法蓮華經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.saddharmapundarika*zh-jnanagupta.1.60) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2017.2.67](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2017.2.67) · Pramāṇa
