Information on the Tibetan bell hammering process:

the Tibetan bell hammering process is carried out entirely by hand. Each Tibetan bell is hammered following a series of procedures that will give the bell the perfect shape. During the manufacturing phase, different metals that make up the bell (copper, tin, iron, lead, gold and silver) are melted in a furnace depending on the type of bell that is desired, such as for bronze bells or those made of seven metals. The molten metal is then poured into a mold to obtain a metal disc of the desired size and thickness. At this point, the metal disc is taken and shaped by hammering it after carefully measuring and selecting it by weight and size. As for the actual hammering process, 4 or 5 metal discs are stacked one on top of the other, which are then heated until they become incandescent.

The formed incandescent metal disc is then hammered by expert artisans until the metal is no longer hot; then, it is heated again and hammered again. These two operations, heating and hammering, continue until the desired shape and size are obtained (this is why hammered Tibetan bells can differ by a few centimeters from each other). During the bell hammering phase, the metal disc must be struck while it is still incandescent, because it is more flexible. As soon as it cools, however, the metal loses its flexibility, becoming more brittle, thus risking the formation of cracks when struck. After obtaining the desired shape, the actual bell manufacturing phases begin.

Each bell is brought to the desired shape and size, and this can happen again by first heating the metal and then shaping it by striking it. Once the required shape and size are obtained, the bell is hammered to be perfected. The individual bells are then chiseled and finished both inside and outside.

Cymbals with the Hindu symbol of Om, symbolizing the sound of the universe, and the Lotus, representing transformation.

Tingsha (or cymbals) are used as musical offerings in spiritual practices and during meditation at regular intervals to maintain concentration. "Musical offerings" are common during pujas (prayer rituals), where various instruments are used: bells, drums, cymbals, and horns.

Musical offerings are very common in numerous Tibetan Buddhist and Hindu rituals. Today, they are used by both monks and laypeople. They are used in Feng Shui, meditation, and healing therapies.

How to use the cymbals

Strike the cymbals together to produce a high, beautiful, clear note that lingers in the air and then creates an extraordinary silence. The bright tone of the cymbals resonates immediately in the human heart. Their purpose is to call us to awareness, to remind us who we are, and to help us recognize our priorities in this often turbulent and illusory world. When suspended horizontally and struck together, a pleasant sound wave seems to oscillate between them, as they reverberate at a high frequency, creating an impressive symphony of enchanting sounds.

Cymbals and Feng Shui

Cymbals are also used in Feng Shui to clear the energy present in a room and "open" it by striking them in the four corners of the room. An excellent way to clear negative energy when smudge sticks cannot be used.

Cymbals and healing sound

Healing sounds and the balancing of aura fields are also used to mark the beginning and end of a meditation period. Some say that using the cymbals is like a call. They bring us back to the here and now.

How to store the cymbals

As with many other ritual objects, when not in use, it is recommended to wrap them in a cloth or store them in the special two-compartment brocade case.

Decoration

The casting may include decoration on the outer surfaces—usually depicting dragons, the mantra "Om Mani Padme Hum," or the eight Tibetan auspicious symbols. However, they can also be simply plain, shining entirely through the beauty of their sound.

Composition

Each cymbal is individually cast in sand molds and made primarily of brass (a metal alloy composed mainly of copper and zinc) or bronze (mainly an alloy of copper and tin). Both sound magnificent, but bronze cymbals produce an even more powerful harmonic resonance that vibrates even more deeply through every fiber of your soul.

Cymbals decorated with the mantra Om mani padme hum.

This is the mantra of compassion, purification, and the balancing of masculine energy of method and feminine energy of wisdom.

Chakras are points of subtle energy, literally called energy wheels. They work as places of energy exchange. In fact, we have hundreds of chakras scattered throughout our subtle energy system.

However, the best known are the seven main chakras, which are connected in the central energy channel of our body, running along the spine. When the chakras work correctly, these centers are the gateways for the vital energy that enters our body through the channels (nadis) and meridians that cross our subtle body. At the same time, they are also exit points for the low-frequency energy that returns to the transforming subtle bodies.

Each of the seven main chakras represents a level of consciousness or a stage of life development, seen from the perspective of our physical existence. The chakras can function less when they are in a negative state for a long time due to negative habits and accumulated emotions. This makes it difficult for the personality to fully integrate the level of consciousness that each chakra represents. When the chakras are open and balanced, they form an integrated system in which each chakra depends on the others for optimal functioning.
