Jodo sect? Jodo Shinshu? Sutras

I went to a relative's funeral the other day.
I think it was certainly the Jodo Shinshu sect, but I heard an unfamiliar sutra called “Tsunamanda ~ Tsunamanda ~”. What does that say? Is it different from the “Namu Amida Buddha,” which you often hear?

It's probably Nan Mander.

It's not a sutra, it's a way of chanting nembutsu. I've heard that the Jodo sect is “namu amidabu” and the Jodo Shinshu is “nanmanda.” However, my place is the Jodo sect, and it's usually “namu amidabu,” but since it's the Genji sect, they teach dance nenbutsu, and at that time it's basically “nanmanda.” baby talk? Namana means worshiping the Buddha, and it is said that it is filled with “nanmandamanda.” I don't really understand why there are differences in how to chant Nembutsu. Did you find it helpful?

I see, the mystery of tuna manda has been solved. What a bunch of buttonotsu, isn't it?
It's pretty common in China, isn't it? Certainly.

I think it's nenbutsu.
It is written as Namu Amida Buddha, but the pronunciation may differ depending on the sect or region, and there are also slight differences depending on the temple or monk. Also, if words such as Chinese are different, the way they are read will also change. By the way, I've heard of sunkubudda in English. (Personally, I wonder if Amida's name isn't included)

I think it's “Namu Amida Buddha”

I'm from the Soto sect, so I don't sing Namu Amida Buddha,
If you listen to the chants at the temples of the Jodo sect, the Jodo Shinshu sect, and the Ji sect
“Namu Amida Buddha”
It sounds like they're chanting things like “namu amidabu” or “namanda (bu).”
You're singing it over and over again, aren't you?
I'm asking your question
I imagine they were singing “Namanda (Bu) Tsu.”
Please try singing it over and over again. oh, that's strange.
It sounds like “that's boring.”

※I'm definitely not saying “it's boring.”

The chief priest probably has a strong habit of nembutsu.

“Namanda ~ Tuna Manda ~ Tuna Manda ~ Tuna Manda~ Tsunamanda ~ Tsu”
“Namanda ~, Tuna Manda ~, Tuna Manda ~, Tuna Manda ~”
You must have heard it.
