the first video represents the way I chant -- namu myoho renge kyo. Except there aren't always other voices blending with mine, and I have no musical chimes in the background.the second video is the more familiar nam-myoho-renge-kyo, although the groups that chant that way usually chant strictly in unison. In this video it sounds more like a bunch of people chanting individually and harmonizing rather than trying to chant in unison.
