Product Description

The singing bowl is traditionally used as a special offering bowl in a Buddhist altar containing barley, flower or rice, water, and butter with a wick placed in the center to create a butter lamp. Due to its amazing sonorous properties singing bowl has become not just a musical instrument, but rather a practical tool of letting go in the practice of meditation. Here is how it works: Place the bowl in the open palm of one hand (Be sure to let go of the rings) and hold the wooden stick vertically like a pen in the other. Tap the bowl with a stick (you will feel the vibration) and then run a stick around the outside rim with steady pressure and speed A series of calming tones will begin to emerge. If not, try it again and again until you notice that the steady tone comes only when you relax, trying to hard simply sends the bowl to the floor! So enjoy the process, remember you're an adult who is simply playing with a cup and a stick. Those who have mindlessly entertained themselves with running their finger over the rim of champagne glass at a boring banquet and those advanced in the practice of Buddhist meditation have the advantage.
