In my reading of the suttas I have not come across an instance where the Buddha teaches puja or chanting of suttas as a means of overcoming dukkha. Unless I have missed the sutta (or forgotten it) would this mean that such practices dont lead to nibbana

Also if these things were not taught by Buddha, where do they come from?
