Tingsha Bells

Listing ID #4213077

The bells are not very thin like musical cymbals they are actually quite thick. They are also not used like musical cymbals, by banging the two flatter surfaces together. They are played by hitting the two edges together and then allowing them to move apart from each other so that the tone can resonate throughout the room. 
The sound that comes from these bells is a high pitched cleansing sound and vibration
The small bells originate in Tibet and are used by Buddhist practitioners. I received my pair when Tibetan Buddhist Monks came to the Coral Springs Museum of Art to do their annual  Sacred Art Tour. I also had the pleasure of sharing lunch with a few of the monks and some yogini friends of Yoga 4 Life Studios in Coral Springs.  
The Tingsha Bells can also be used for sound healing. The purity and clarity of the bells sound is great for clearing the mind screen and getting more in touch with the third eye center. Watch the video above to listen to the vibration and sound of the Tingsha Bells.
