When and who made the healing bowls is still a mystery. Though more popular in Buddhism, the use of healing bowls is believed to be as old as Hinduism itself.  It was practiced by monks and royal families to attain higher level of meditation and tranquility. Healing bowls therapy has been practiced for centuries to cure many diseases.

 Our hand hammered healing bowls are made from a special metallic alloy of seven different metals; copper, iron, tin, lead, gold, silver and zinc that corresponds to the seven planets in the universe and the seven chakras in our body.

Thick plate of alloyed metals is heated in a fire and when the plate is red hot and soft it is hammered to form a shape of a bowl. The hammering is done until the metals start cooling and is quickly immersed in cold water to rapidly solidify the metals. This process is repeated several times until the alloy takes the good shape of the bowl, a good texture, shape and most importantly good sound and uniform vibration.

The entire process of making a bowl takes about 4-5 days
of skilled workmanship. Thank you for supporting the artisans of Nepal.
