OTDM0070

Add to Wishlist

These Tingsha each carry a pair of dragons.  Tibetan dragons are the protectors of Buddhism whose thunderous voices are said to  awaken us from delusion. The dragon is are also sometimes associated with clear communication and the element of water.

Tingsha are small, heavy cymbals joined together by a leather strap, that are traditionally used in prayer and rituals by Tibetan Buddhist practitioners. Struck gently together they produce a clear, high pitched tone that is ideal for mediation, relaxation and the cleansing and protection of your meditation space. Heaven of Sound carefully selects and matches each of our Tingsha pairs to ensure sweet clear sounds.

Our Tingsha are hand cast and will vary slightly in size, weight, and style. The tone will also vary with the larger tingsha having a bit deeper tone than the smaller and the silver dragons having a brighter sound.
