(B23A) PRAYER BELLS
Artist – Unknown Media – Metal
The Prayer Bell is used in rituals to call the presence of the Buddhas and Hindu dieties. Before a prayer or chanting one would ring or “sing: the bell to clear the mind of worldly matters and dispel street and tension. In Tibetan, Buddhist and Hindu temples they used to make lightning and is often called the thunderbolt mandala.
The bell can be rung or struck like a gong or made to sing similarly to the Tibetan singing bowls. The bell is approximately 6” high. It is balanced to sing in “D”. When struck or made to ring, the bell sounds in the second and third octave of “D.” As the tone purifies it will move solely into the third octave
