Sharakans

Sharakans are traditional Tibetan Buddhist ritual chants or sung prayers performed during ceremonies, meditation, or prayer sessions. They often involve repetitive melodies and verses that invoke spiritual blessings, protect against obstacles, or honor sacred figures. These chants serve as a means to focus the mind, accumulate merit, and connect practitioners with divine energies. Sharakans can be sung solo or collectively and are integral to many Tibetan spiritual practices, fostering devotion, mindfulness, and spiritual transformation within the community.
