thx,...agreed. Consider the inhabitans of Pandora - probably never heard of Skt. Most of the mantras I chant are in Mandarin. This language is very conducive to the chanting of mantras by virtue of an inbuilt articulation of single syllable words. When strung together and chanted rapidly, the result is powerful! (somewhat also true of Japanese and some Tibetan but adepts in the latter can string the words together so smoothly as to make a continuous musical sound). ... special bonus: Sarita Vendetta's illustrations of a modern version of Hoffman's Der Struwwelpeter. http://www.laluzdejesus.com/shows/previousshows/1999shows/vendetta4.htm
ps. Also I get a strange kundalini high whenever I hear people speaking in Mandarin, but another type of totally different high with German; even though I don't know many words in these languages.
