Antique Singing Bowl with relaxing sound Meditation
One has to understand the deeper underlying meaning because in Tibetan culture, not only were they used to eat out of, but also as ritual offerings to their Gods, hence the sound had to be pure and universal for it to be worthy as an offering to the highest order. Some accounts say that it is forbidden even within the monasteries to talk about the bowls, and the highest Lamas used them in rituals to travel to other dimensions…
The legends say that the secrets of sound yield so much power that it must be kept hidden. We do know that the act of listening to the sound of the singing bowls stops one’s internal dialogue, making the bowls an excellent tool for meditation.
