A ritual instrument from Buddhism

Bells have a long tradition in religious rituals. Their high-pitched sound resonates for a long time and is rich in harmonious, relaxing overtones. They are often used in meditation and sound massage, for example. This ritual bell (Ghanta) from Tibet represents the female principle and the thunderbolt (Vajra or Tibetan Dorje) the male.

This is what characterizes the high-gloss bell:

Decorated with Buddhist auspicious motifs
Bell with dorje as a Buddhist ritual instrument in various sizes - the larger the size, the richer the sound
Ideally suited for yoga, meditation, sound massage or for room cleansing in Feng Shui
Also ideal for drawing attention in meetings

The meaning of the bell with Dorje

In Tibetan Buddhism, the soft-sounding bell symbolizes the female principle of purity and is held in the left hand by the handle. It is held by the monks in the left hand, the thunderbolt (dorje) on the right and crossed at the level of the heart. This position symbolizes the union of the two attributes: Path and goal are one - unity of yin and Yang.
Further interesting background information on this ritual object can be found in the attached PDF document by sound therapist Stefan Scheil (see tab above).
