tenthousandvillagesus Little Song Singing Bowl

The Inscribed Singing Bowl's sound reduces stress, promotes relaxation, and embodies two of Nepal's richest traditions, brass metalwork, and meditation—ethically handcrafted with an antique copper finish by artisans of Mahaguthi in Nepal. The Wisdom Eyes etched around the outside of the Inscribed Singing Bowl look in all four directions, these traditional symbols are often seen at Buddhist shrines to symbolize "all-seeing." Used for meditation, the sound of a singing bowl soothes your soul, cleanses your heart, and frees your mind from worries.

Often used for meditation, the music of a singing bowl is meant to soothe your soul, cleanse your heart and free your mind of worries. To make the bowl sing, first tap it. Firmly hold the smooth part of the stick upright against the bowl and move it slowly around the outside of the bowl in a circular motion keeping firm contact with the bowl's surface. The bowl will start to resonate.
