Both Buddhism and Hinduism include ideas of the role of sound and vibration in trance and transformation.
The notion that sound and vibration affect consciousness is also widespread and forms the basis for
the ritual use of drums and other instruments in shamanic religions. Certain sounds are used as therapy
in many cultures, especially when someone is seen as out of balance or having lost his natural internal
rhythm.
Anyone can benefit from the relaxing, soothing effects of the sounds produced. Many people
are also mysteriously drawn to the sounds and find them fascinating regardless of any spiritual connections.
The use of bells, cymbals and singing bowls in meditative practices is common. Singing Bowls and
Bells can also be used for healing, space clearing, crystal cleansing and unblocking the chakras.

Singing bowls are sound instruments traditionally used by Tibetan Buddhists as meditational aids. For
ritual purposes, singing bowls are used to start or end a meditation, to punctuate a prayer, and to call
the beginning of a ceremony or ritual. Alternatively, you can use your singing bowl to clear negative
energies from your home and cleanse your crystals.

HOW TO PLAY THE SINGING BOWL
|
|
|
Hold the bowl in the palm of the hand, so that the body of the bowl is allowed to vibrate freely. With
the wooden stick (puja), rub the outside rim in a circular motion, keeping an even pressure. Gently increase
the speed as the bowl begins to vibrate, and as the sound grows. You can also tap the bowl to begin the
vibration. The sound is both beautiful and haunting.

HOW TO USE THE SINGING BELL
|
|
|
The bell can be rung, struck like a gong or made to sing by rubbing a stick around the outer edge (similar
to the Tibetan singing bowls). As the sound resonates they balance negative energies with the positive
energies harmonising your surroundings.
