Tingshas are used as musical offerings in spiritual practices and during meditation practice. Ring at regular intervals to maintain concentration. “Musical offerings” are common during pujas (praying rituals) when a number of instruments are used: bells, drums, cymbals and horns. Musical offerings are indeed standard in many Tibetan Buddhist and Hindi rituals. Used with Feng Shui, meditation, cleansing, healing and alignment.
Strike the hand cymbals together and a beautiful, clear, high note will rise from them, clearing the air and creating an extraordinary stillness. The scintillating tone of the tingsha instantly strikes a resonance within the human heart. Their purpose is to summon, they call us to awareness, to remember who we are, and to recognise our priorities in this often turbulent and illusive world. When the user suspends them horizontally and strikes them together, a delightful, oscillating wave of sound seems to pass between them as they reverberate at a high frequency, creating an impressive symphony of evocative sounds.
We use them in Feng Shui to clear the energy present in a room and “open” it by sounding the tingshas in the four corners of a room. A great way to clear energy when, for example, smudging is not possible or appropriate.
By healing or balancing auric fields, cymbals we use them to define the beginning and the end of a period of meditation. Some say the use of tingshas is like summoning. It brings our awareness into the here and now.
As with many altar offerings, we recommend placing them wrapped in cloth when not in use, or keep them in a special tingsha brocade two compartment holder.
The casting may include decoration of the upper surfaces – usually depicting dragons, the mantra “Om Mani Padme Hum” or Buddhist symbols like the Tibetan eight auspicious signs. But many tinghas are just plain, shining entirely through the beauty of their sound.
Each tingsha is individually sand cast and typically made mainly from brass (a metal alloy of mainly copper and zinc) or bronze (mainly copper and tin alloy). While both sounding beautiful, the bronze cymbals produce an even more powerful harmonic resonance that vibrates even deeper through every fiber of your soul.
This Singing Bowl is an original, hand hammered singing bowl from Nepal. It has a widened shape and a very special, long lasting sound. It weighs up to 300g. All singing bowls come with a wooden beater
Beaten or hand hammered singing bowls are made using a hand hammering process. This requires several processes to shape it into a perfect hand hammered singing bowl.
The manufacturers make each singing bowl with seven metals, copper, tin, zinc, iron, lead, gold and silver. They melt the metals in a furnace. The molten metal is then poured into die to prepare a metal mould for the various sizes and weights. Then, they cut the round metal moulds into round metal discs in the required size and thickness. Finally, they hand beat or hammer the discs and categorise them for weight and size.
They pile up several discs, one upon the other, and then heat them so they are red hot. The red hot metal sheets are hammered by a group of expert artisans, as long as the heat remains in the metal. They then reheat the metal to continue the beating process. Eventually they achieve the desired shape and size. However, this repetitive process is why the hammered or beaten singing bowls will all be different from each other in size and diameter.
They can only work on the metal when it is red hot. When the metal cools, it will loose its softness and flexibility, which in turn would make the metal brittle. If worked upon when the metal is too cool the bowl will crack and break.

Set of 7 weighted Chakra Tuning Forks, one for each chakra. In blue velvet storage bag. Tuned within a ±0,25% deviation margin.
These forks work more on the physical level. One can feel the vibration more strongly & at a deeper level, when its stem is placed on the body. This is due to the weights at the end of each prong. The sound lasts longer, but is softer & more diffused than unweighted tuning forks. The chakra tuning forks are heavier in weight and shorter in length than the same fork in unweighted type. These are excellent to use for pain relief, reducing inflammation and inducing relaxation. They are normally placed on the body or by the ears. To tone them, one can simply tap them on the palm of the hand or use the Tuning Fork Activator. The weighted tuning fork has a round weight at the end of each prong.
The Chakras are said to be “force centers” or whirls of energy permeating, from a point on the physical body, the layers of the subtle bodies in an ever-increasing fan-shaped formation (the fans make the shape of a love heart). Rotating vortices of subtle matter, they are considered the focal points for the reception and transmission of energies. The Chakra Set is a set of Tuning Forks that can be used with the chakra system. There are 7 Tuning Forks in this set. It is based on the mathematical rotation of the planets around our Sun. These forks are NOT based on a musical scale. They work more on the cosmic multi-dimensions of our chakras, our not-noticeable bodies or subtle parts. They also work on pathways as well as other gateways of energy. The planetary cycle of the solar system is used to arrive at accurate formulae upon which these tuning forks have been created. This links them to our cosmic multi-dimensional selves. This self is eternal, not noticeable and approachable through layers, ladders, gateways and manifold levels of energy. These tuning forks prepare pathways to a Cosmic Universal understanding of Life and our Soul’s infinite relationship to it.
In comparison, it is unlike the Harmonic Spectrum Set, which is tuned to the Pythagorean Scale (also known as the Just Scale) and is more in touch with the physical plane of existence, working on a more physical level. The physical plane is more concentrated, crystallised in definite form, cognitive, and revolves around the 5 human senses and various parts of our physical body like the tissues, fluids, bones, organs, etc. The Swiss mathematician and musicologist Hans Cousto developed these.
