The Tingsha is an instrument that is typically used to punctuate the beginning and ending of a meditation session. When the tingsha is struck it rings with a diamond-like clarity. The sound is profoundly effective at bringing about Chod, the Tibetan concept of cutting through. The bright harmonic tones effectively center the mind and help dispel thought and negative energies. Used in your home, the Tingsha can provide a sense of clarity and calm in your personal space.
The Tingshas are made using the same 7 metal process used when producing meditation bowls. Each is handcrafted using traditional Tibetan sand-casting techniques. Tingshas are often adorned with auspicious beings such as dragons or snakes.
