The
Amazing Benefits of Antique Tibetan Singing Bowls
Singing Bowls have a tradition that goes back as far as 2500 years.
They were first introduced into Tibet from India, some 1100 years ago, during
the time that Buddhism was first brought there. The bowls produce a naturally
relaxing tone that is an ideal assistance to meditation practice. The resonance
causes the listener to easily drift into a calm, relaxed, meditative state.
Users of Tibetan Singing Bowls describe the effects of listening to these
sounds as creating a centered feeling. It is also believed that the resonant
sounds produced by the bowls have a beneficial, healing effect. For these
reasons, Tibetan Singing Bowls are considered a form of energy medicine and are
found all over the world at the alters of Buddhist monasteries. The bowls are
played with a range of techniques ranging from rubbing the fingers along the
bowl to using a wooden stick. They are also sometimes played with water added
into the bowl.
Why Is It Important That Your Singing Bowl Is An Authentic Antique?:
While new singing bowls are certainly available it is generally agreed
that Antique Tibetan Singing Bowls are far superior. New bowls lack the lineage
of the antique variety, but beyond that, antique bows are considered to mellow
and improve with time. The sounds produced by antique bowls are simply better
at helping the user in achieving that ideal meditative state. As with most
things in life, you get what you pay for. In the case of Tibetan Singing Bowls,
the higher cost of purchasing the authentic, antique pieces is well worth it.

antique bowls is the real deal. For more ideas click this antique tibetan singing bowls for sale.
