Purchased from amanamana in Nishi-Azabu, Tokyo. Singing Bowl, Small, approximately 14.5cm in diameter. This singing bowl features a motif of Buddha forming the Bhumisparsha mudra (earth-touching gesture) on the inside, and auspicious Tibetan Buddhist motifs meticulously applied all around the outside. There are various Buddha poses, but the Bhumisparsha mudra is believed to ward off evil spirits and demons, and to purify. It is said that using this singing bowl can purify a space. This singing bowl is highly recommended for those who wish to enjoy its spiritual power. Despite its small size, it produces a beautiful overtone with a long sustain.
