Sacred Tibetan Buddhist Bell
Buddhist bells, also known as dril-bu, are ornately decorated handheld instruments that have served a symbolistic and ritual function in Buddhism for centuries. The bell is played not by striking but by moving the hands gracefully in a prescribed fashion according to the ritual being performed. While the bell must be held in the left hand when being played, it must always be picked up and placed back with the right hand. The sound produced by a Buddhist bell varies based on the size and shape of the bell. The resonant, periodic ring of the bell serves an important liturgical function, both in terms of its ability to evoke a meditative state and as a musical offering to the Gods.
