Nice Hub
Great information. I am very much into feng-shui and everything ancient and healing. It's time to get a bowl - I have bells but the bowls are beautiful to look at.
This is a great reminder for the next time I am in the right shop!
Thank you!
Anamika: Thanks for your post and for pointing out the use of singing bowls in India. Actually since the historical Buddha was enlightened and then taught in India for many years it is likely that India is the original source of the singing bowl tradition!
I just love the feel of playing my singing bowl, the sound resonates beautifully with me. Thanks for a great hub.
Do you know any place i can buy them from? Thanks

I had a Tibetan bell which could we made to produce a sound as you describe. I didn't know its use till I read your hub just now.
I think it fell while dusting and developed a crack and no music flowed. Next time I go to Delhi I'll buy a singing bowl from Tibetan stalls in Janpath.
Did you know that a similar sound can be produced with a wine glass. Wet the rim and run your index finger on it. Gradually the sound becomes louder.
