Mark 談他的Nokyo’s:
自2022年底以來,我幾乎每天都寫一篇「Nokyo」,這是從日本的經文或經典(okyo)衍生而來的。心經無疑是最著名的經文範例。這些誦經以多種方式激活身心:它們共鳴,調節呼吸,跟隨各種節奏模式,並逐漸深入我們的內在。有些誦經富有挑戰性且速度快,另一些則非常緩慢:就像把一個稜鏡放在你的聲音周圍,以聽、看和感受它的所有色彩。
在一天之內,你將體驗念誦、吟誦和唱誦的全然效果,而不必擔心這些文本是否符合你的宗教信仰。意義在非話語的層面上產生,或者根本不再重要。這裡有很多空間來了解身體化知識和非二元性。
在早晨,我們用輕柔的練習來準備身體、心靈和聲音。我們喚醒感官,放鬆那些僵硬或堵塞的通道。逐漸地,我們將聲音和波動的能量置於舞台中央。從那裡開始,我們探索Nokyo:你將會收到一本包含挑選過的Nokyo的小工作手冊(包含在工作坊內)。我們將從一些非常簡單的念誦開始,逐步發現更多的可能性。在一天結束時,你將掌握許多Mark的Nokyo唱誦的基本步驟。我們最後會組成小組,自行選擇並誦讀你所選的Nokyo。

【其他人怎麼說】
Nokyo唱誦已經被介紹到幾個身心工作者的團體中。他們認為這是一個幫助他們的身心工作擴展到聲音領域的非常有用的方式。某工作坊主持人如此描述這種體驗:
「一年前,Mark van Tongeren 來到我們學校,給我們進行泛音唱法的實踐介紹。一天結束時,他為我們的學校介紹了一個Nokyo,供我們吟誦。在去年秋天的葡萄牙僻靜營,我們探索了這個Nokyo。當大家作為一個團體一起吟誦時,可以聽到層次分明的聲音合而為一,形成一種空間感的體驗。此外,也有許多個體層次的經驗。例如,它會促使身體釋放緊張感,特別是在喉嚨後方沿著脊椎的部位。對於那些不習慣唱歌、平時只是用聲音進行日常溝通和分享訊息的人來說,這是一個非常寶貴的機會,可以遠離常規、發現自己獨特的聲音,並作為一種與手臂和手的動作密切相連的表達方式,因此也與肩頸有關聯。」

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION
Mark about his nokyo’s:
Almost every day since the end of 2022 I write a nokyo, which is derived from Japanese okyo’s, or sutra’s. The Heart Sutra is by far the most famous example of an okyo. These recitations activate body-mind in many ways: they resonate, regulate the breathing following all kinds of rhythmic patterns, and gradually sink down deeper into our being. Some are challenging and fast, others extremely slow: as if you put a prism around your voice to hear, to see and to feel all its colours.

During one day you get to know the wholesome effect of reciting, singing-speaking and chanting, without having to worry if the texts fit into your religious convictions or not. Meanings arise on a non-discursive level or are simply not relevant anymore. There is much space for getting to know embodied knowledge and non-duality.

In the morning we prepare body, mind and voice with gentle exercises. We awaken our senses and soften the channels that are rigid or blocked. Gradually we put the voice and energies of vibration centre stage. From there we start exploring the written nokyo’s: you receive a small workbook with a selection of nokyo’s (included in the workshop). We will start with some very easy nokyo’s and gradually discover more possibilities. By the end of the day you have a good grasp of many of the basic procedures or Mark’s nokyo reciting. We finish by making small groups and chosing nokyo’s that you select yourself.

WHAT OTHERS SAY:
Nokyo chanting has been introduced to several schools of practitioners, who find it a very useful expansion into the sonic realm of their body-mind pratices. One workshop hostess described the experience as follows:

One year ago Mark van Tongeren visited the school to give a practical introduction on overtone singing. At the end of the day he presented our school an Okyo for chanting. This Okyo we explored in chanting during the retreat in Portugal last Autumn. There was the spatial experience in chanting, hearing the layers of sound unified when chanting as a group. And there were many more individual experiences. Like how it provokes in the body a release of tension specially from the back of the throat along the spine. Or for those not used to singing and using the voice other than for daily communication and sharing of information it was very valuable to discover the own unique voice free from conventions and as a means of expression closely connected to the hands and arm movements, and therefor also the neck and shoulders.

Rama Ramo is a fantastic quiet place overlooking endless Yangmingshan forests. It naturally brings you back to the serener part of self that we seek with our chanting.

YOUR TEACHER
Mark van Tongeren is a sound explorer with a deep interest in the synergy of arts, sciences and contemplative traditions. Mark has over 30 years of experience in theatre, music and dance productions and holds a PhD from Leiden University’s Academy of Creative and Performing Arts. He practices yoga for some 25 years, created a form of yoga that integrates artistic-performative tools about 12 years ago. He has played and experimented with and studied numerous kinds of voice / music & performance practices since he was a teenager and continues to expand his ‘voca-bulary’. A great influence on his music and thinking was multi-medial artist Michael Vetter (1943-2013), who spend many years as a Zen monk in Japan. In the early 1990s Mark became acquainted with Vetter’s radical reinterprations of Japanese sutra (‘okyo’) recitations.
