kotodama

kotodama: Jap., the mystical force inherent in language The term: kotodama itself, translates at a simplistic level, as: "Word Spirit" and refers to a Spiritual state or feeling induced by beautiful 'word-sounds' when correctly intoned. (More fully, kotodama encompasses the notion that good can be brought about as a result of correctly-intoned beautiful 'word-sounds' and evil brought about by ugly 'word-sounds' - or by beautiful 'word-sounds' incorrectly-pronounced.) Kotodama is inseparably bound up with the concept of kotomuke speech that brings peace' and kotoage practice of speaking boldly in the presence of the Kami (numinous beings), seeking to invoke the magical power of words
