Okay kiddo, so sometimes grown-ups like to say things over and over again, like saying a special prayer or chant ten times in a row. This is called a "recitation". It helps them feel peaceful and focused. It's like when you count to ten when you're upset to help make yourself feel better. So, repeating something ten times in a row is a recitation, and it's just a way to help people stay calm and centered. Does that make sense to you?
