Little about Tibetan Singing Bowls:

Singing bowls (also known as 'Himalayan bowls' or 'rin gongs' in Japan) are type of musical instrument classified as a standing bell. Rather than hanging inverted or attached to a handle, standing bells sit with the bottom surface resting. The sides and rim of the bell vibrate to produce sound. Singing bowls were traditionally used throughout Asia as part of Bön, Buddhist, Ngagpa and shamanic meditation practice. Today they are used worldwide for meditation, relaxation, healthcand mystical and religious practice.are

How To Play Singing Bowl:

• Start by holding your bowl in the palm of your left hand (right if you are left handed) The very bottom of the bowl should be the only part of the bowl touching your hand so the body of the bowl is allowed to vibrate freely.
• With a wooden mallet or whatever mallet you are using, slowly start rubbing the outside rim in a clockwise circular motion, keeping an even and constant pressure on the edge of the bowl.
• Sometimes it is helpful to gently strike the bowl before you start the rubbing motion.
