The tradition of the singing bowl goes back to the time of Buddha Shakyamuni (560-480 BC). The tradition was brought to Tibet from India in the 8th century AD by the great tantric master Padmasambhava, along with the teachings of the Buddha. Singing bowls produce sounds that induce a deep state of relaxation and support meditation.

Singing Bowl Playing Tips.
Holding the singing bowl in the palm of your left hand, lightly tap the mallet against the side of the bowl. Using even pressure, rub the brass knuckles around the outside edge of the rim of the bowl. Use a full arm motion, just like a cauldron of soup, and keep the striker straight up and down. It’s not a wrist movement, it’s a full arm movement. Remember to apply pressure – the friction of the bat against the outer rim creates vibrations which result in a sound. Let the sound rise slowly while the singing bowl picks up the vibration
