2) 念佛 [niàn fú]: “remembrance of the Buddha['s name”.
3) 三十八行處 [sān shí bā xíng chù]: “thirty-eight meditation subjects”.
4) 十念 [shí niàn]: “ten moments of mindfulnes”.
Pali is the language of the Tipiṭaka, which is the sacred canon of Theravāda Buddhism and contains much of the Buddha’s speech. Closeley related to Sanskrit, both languages are used interchangeably between religions.
