 Exquisite Crystal Singing Bowl
Exquisite Crystal Singing Bowl

One day , when I stepped into a store which sell Tibetan Singing Bowls, I was Obsessed by a Exquisite Crystal Singing Bowl . it is so beautiful that  I can’t help hit it lightly. The sound of it is so wonderful. I began to collect Tibetan Singing Bowls from then.
Yesterday, I found a beautiful Crystal Singing Bowl again.  A Quartz Crystal Singing Bowl is a bowl precisely manufactured from pure quartz crystal. The bowl is hand-tuned, by an exclusive process, to a note of the diatonic musical scale. When played, the bowl resonates (”sings”) its note, opening and balancing the corresponding energy vortex of the body.
Frosted Crystal Bowls come in a variety of sizes and styles. Sizes are listed by the diameter of the bowl. Height is approx. 2/3rds of diameter.  That is, a bowl with a 10″ diameter is approx. 7.5″ high.
I hope some day I could collect more delicate Crystal Singing Bowl.

Meaningful Singing BowlAre you interested in the Meaningful Singing Bowl? In Buddhist practice, Tibetan Singing Bowls are used as a support for meditation, trance induction and prayer. The use of singing bowls in Tibet is the subject of much debate and many stories. Some people say they were used for meditation while others say they were magical tools for transformation of self and of matter.
Singing bowls are played by the friction of rubbing a wooden, plastic, or leather wrapped mallet around the rim of the bowl to produce overtones and a continuous ’singing’ sound. Antique singing bowls are unique because they are multiphonic instruments, producing multiple harmonic overtones at the same time. Antique singing bowls are the fruit of sophisticated metallurgy, techniques currently deemed lost and provide a unique study in the Timeline of materials technology as do high quality bells and other instruments. The overtones are a result of their metalworking and fabrication which consists of multiple metals and were produced by a sophisticated hammered or beaten technique with. The majority of new bowls are cast metal and not hammered and beaten with Metalworking hand tools, and produce only one tone.
Both antique and new Tibetan Singing Bowls are widely used as an aid to meditation (see the “Meditation and the brain” section in Meditation) and as a tool for trance induction. They are also used in yoga, music therapy, sound healing, religious services, performances and personal enjoyment.

Sacred Antique Singing BowlsMost Tibetan Singing Bowls are Sacred Antique Singing Bowls just as the bowl we have shown. Our bowls are highly-prized, and have specific characteristics that set them apart form modern ones. They are made with five different metals, usually including gold and silver. One of these metals is sometimes iron obtained from meteorites. Similar bowls are made in other countries of that region, specifically India and Nepal. Although the bowls are often referred to as Tibetan bowls, there is little evidence that they are used for rituals or meditation in Tibet.
The bowls are known for their ability to produce a multiphonic sound, i.e. one that contains several harmonic frequencies. Over time the tone improves and bowls that are centuries old have a rich and beautiful sound. They are valued for their craftsmanship, and their remarkable sound.
Besides, do you know how to use Tibetan Singing Bowls? There are two main uses of a singing bowl: in meditation and in sound healing. In meditation, once the bowl is sounded, then the mediator uses the note as an aid, following it into silence. In sound healing, usually numerous bowls are used during a healing session, each one carefully selected by the healer.

Something about Sacred Singing BowlsSome people feel Tibetan Singing Bowls are far from our life, and know little about them. Today I will say Something about Sacred Singing Bowls.
The Tibetan singing bowl has been shrouded in myth and mystery throughout the ages and even during recent times. Even its name is a misnomer that has continued even to this day. Antique singing bowls were not only made in Tibet, but throughout the Himalayan region. According to renown singing bowl expert, most old singing bowls originated in Nepal and India, although antique bowls have been known to have been made from as far as Afghanistan to Burma. Another misnomer is that they were made from the sacred “seven metal alloy.”
As far as can be known there has been no definitive proof that this was in truth the fact. The most plausible belief is that they were made of between 3 to 12 metal alloys, and that the metal alchemist used what ever metals were available in the particular region. Even more astonishing is the myth that singing bowls are Buddhist in origin. Many experts believe that singing bowls most likely originated in northeast and eastern Tibet, where fire cults existed among the Ch’ing tribes of Northeastern Tibet and the Naxi in eastern Tibet. These cultures had extensive knowledge and experience in metallurgy and the practice of shamanic rituals and techniques. It’s most likely that singing bowls were used in shamanic rituals, for healing, shamanic journeying, storytelling, exorcism and maybe even the use of sound as an anti-gravity tool. These shamanic alchemists were of the Bon animistic religion, which emphasized sacred sound in their spiritual practices. After Buddhism replaced the Bon as the main religion in Tibet in 12 century A.D., the singing bowl has been associated with Buddhism. The use of the singing bowl in Buddhist ritual practices has been held in upmost secrecy. It has been rumored that only the highest Lamas use and have knowledge about their specific uses in certain Buddhist rituals and practices.
What we do know is that these marvelous instruments with their harmonious vibrations have the ability to take us out of ourselves, our ego, and bring peace and harmony to our body, mind and spirit. They have the ability to put us into alpha or theta brainwave states that allow us to access a quiet, peaceful state of mind, which has a powerful healing effect on our bodies, mind and spirit.
