Tingshas ^_^

Tibetan Tinsha (type of cymbal):

They look like two discs with an indent in the center and are connected on the back with a string or leather strap. Tingshas are held by the center of the leather strap and tapped together at a the edges to make a high pitched ringing sound. The sound is different for each set of tingshas. When made correctly they are identical and the tone should be identical. They are used by some to interrupt negative energy flow in a room. To do this you use them in each corner of the room. I have used this when I did not have access to the items needed for smudging my home. They are great to use for meditation because of the constant tone they emit till they stop. They have also been used in sound healing along with singing bowls. They are used to indicate both the beginning and the end. When in meditation they help you focus on the here and now and at the end they bring you back to the here and now. I personally use them to break tension when I need to focus on something :)
