Da Bei Zhou brings people calm and joy. Every temple has Great Compassion Puja very often and has many Buddhists attend. Buddhists make themselves calm and relieved by chanting Da Bei Zhou. This phenomenon shows that this issue is very important in Buddhism. Therefore, this study will focus on the role of Da Bei Zhou in Great Compassion Puja and its sound wave influence. In literature review, the study discusses the relationship between Great Compassion Puja and Da Bei Zhou, and also tries to find out the influence of Da Bei Zhou to Great Compassion Puja and Buddhists. Besides, by studying the sound wave and therapy, the study aims to find out the function and meaning that Da Bei Zhou brings to Buddhists. After the literature review, the study uses questionnaire survey and analyzes its results. The main findings are listed as below. 1.The ritual doesn’t exist if the ritual doesn’t come with chanting. Buddhism conveys its dharma by chanting. Therefore, chanting Da Bei Zhou is one of the key elements. 2.Buddhist music therapy is not usual physical therapy. It is developed from Buddhist culture. It doesn’t cure disease with science nor medial theory. Buddhist music therapy is based on Buddhism dharma and works with spiritual practice. It’s not just physical maintenance; instead it’s more about the experience and practice of life. Based on the results above, the study suggests that we can have the public and Buddhists know Da Bei Zhou better by holding more community lectures. In that way, for people who love to attend pujas, they can purify themselves with respected spirits and the sound therapy function of Da Bei Zhou will be practiced.
