You are hearing the complete chanting and meditation session of a regular visit to a Buddhist temple in Laos.

Please keep in mind that there might be some minor variations depending on the monk leading the chant. Sometimes they add a new chant or they leave out a chant that was included here.

When there is a special Buddhist date, the chanting session might be completely different, in a completely different order and a different length. However, if you go to the temple on a regular day, this is how the session will usually go. It lasts for about 60 to 90 minutes, including the meditation session, Dhamma talk and questions.
