Introduction Tibetan singing bowls (TSB) have been used in one or another form in human activities since ancient times.
Tibetan singing bowls massage allegedly appeared about 3,900 years ago in the ancient state of Shang Shung (modern China) and continuously have been developing over the centuries along with Tibetan medicine.
Traditional Tibetan singing bowls massage is a procedure of the massage performed by contact or non-contact method of using Tibetan singing bowls.
Tibetan singing bowls have certain physical properties that allow bowls to work on the physical body, the CNS and PNS, tissues and organs, organ systems. In addition, Tibetan singing bowls have certain properties that exist but haven’t been recorded by modern scientific measuring devices yet. That means that they have certain esoteric features.
In the tradition of Tcering Ngodrub, two basic techniques of Tibetan singing bowls massage are used: a technique of “Contact sound” and methods of “sound bath”, as well as individual, group or couple practices that use Tibetan singing bowls. In addition, there are practices of Tibetan singing bowls with animals. Methodology “Contact sound” is characterized by the fact that Tibetan singing bowls have a contact with the human body. A method of “sound bath” is when singing bowls are not in contact with the human body, although they are located very close. The meditative practices with Tibetan singing bowls show thar elements of these two methods can be combined – for example, in the couple practices of the harmonization of interaction of man and woman or Bonpo or shamanic practices of journey into altered states of consciousness (ASC).

Procedure of Tibetan singing bowls’ massage (full version)
How the procedure is going The procedure is performed on the floor on a comfortable mat, in a warm and well ventilated area. If possible, in the twilight or in soft light. While using the technique of “sound bath” and meditative practices, good soundproofing of the room from outside noise is recommended. In the case of technique “Contact sound” there is no need to have perfect sound insulation.
The technique of vibro-acoustic singing bowls massage “sound bath”
While the procedure patient is wearing cotton loose clothes, or he is naked and covered with a cotton sheet. Patients are advised to abstain (for one day before the procedure and for one day after it) on products of animal origin, smoking and alcohol. After the procedure of the Tibetan singing bowls massage it is extremely useful to spend the rest of the day in a relaxed atmosphere, eliminating the possibility of stress.
In the course of the procedure and the preparation for it is recommended to use the procedure of “Fumigation” (LUNG DOUG / RLUNG DUG) from the section “External procedures” of traditional Tibetan medicine. In addition, it is necessary to have a burning candle. Close to the patient it is advised to put the things symbolizing or representing the five elements.
At the beginning the person receiving a procedure and the Master of the Sound sit on the floor facing in the direction to that side of the light, which is conformable for the purpose of the procedure. If the aim is to harmonize, then choose the direction to the east. The patient is encouraged to imagine himself in the rainbow transparent sphere. The therapist is configured to the procedure and removes the first sounds of the Tibetan singing bowl according to the technology. Next, the therapist moves the singing bowl around the patient’s body, periodically removing the sound.
After that the therapist puts Tibetan singing bowl upside down on the patient’s head and removes the sound according to the method of the massage. At the end of this stage the patient is asked to lie down on his stomach in a comfortable position, and the ankle should be enclosed under the roller. The body of the patient is hiding with a light natural tissue, the head can be covered with a towel. Next, the therapist removes the vibration from Tibetan singing bowl and sets it on the body of a patient according to the scheme which is necessary in a particular case. He performs this manipulation on the back surface of the patient’s body, and then removes the bowl from the body and offers the patient to turn back.
After the patient is turned back on, the therapist covers his eyes with light tissue, and performs light traction (stretching) of the lower and upper extremities. And then removes the vibration of Tibetan singing bowl and sets the bowl on the body of the patient. Then he moves the bowl on the patient’s body, removing the bowl’s sound.
After finishing the proring, the therapist removes singing bowl from the human body.
If the patient is performed to the technique “Contact sound” and methods of “Sound Bath”, then after proring of the front surface of the body therapist puts the bowls around the patient lying on his back on the floor, according to the methodical recommendations of extracting from them the sound from the scheme, which is necessary in each case.
Recommendations for the procedure of Tibetan singing bowls’ massage The sounds of Tibetan singing bowls extremely effectively influence on the release of tension in the body and organs. Such action creates a powerful effect of beauty, health and youth!
In general, Tibetan singing bowls’ massage can be considered as a unique health system that allows you to restore the energy balance of the subtle energies of the person acting on the first cause of disease or infirmity.
Duration of treatment 1.5–2 hours
The ideal time for the procedure – in the morning or in the evening.
Recommendations: for preventive and curative purposes, for recovery and relaxation it is normal to have a course of 2–3 procedures for general Tibetan singing bowls’ massage periodically 1–2 times a week. With the aim of improving the health 4–6 treatments periodically 2–3 times a week is recommended. With a therapeutic (curative) purpose the course is individually designed.
Tibetan singing bowls massage is perfectly combined with a traditional Tibetan massage Ku Nye. It is the most effective way to achieve a state of relaxation, while the therapist, performing a massage, applies a minimal effort. The work takes place at all levels of the human body, beginning with the physical and ending with the subtlest levels of consciousness.

About Tibetan singing bowls Tibetan singing bowls – it is primarily a vibration, which is the sound in it’s turn. Sound is energy. The energy transforms form into matter, that is because “in the beginning was the word.” Myths about the creation of the world in all religions in one or another form describe the emergence of Sound (vibration) as a fundamental principle of all things.
Sound (vibration) exists everywhere and in everything: singing of birds, the rustle of the snow, the crackling logs, rattling of jackhammer. Even if we close our ears, we will hear the sound of the heart. Sound is a vibration. A vibration is characterized by a certain length of the wave.
Sound can not only be heard, but also can be seen. For example, a flat plate, on which something loose and light is spilled, a plate with sand. The dynamic of musical center is put under it. And you can see the intricate patterns that will emerge from the sand. Sound or word can kill, but also it may have creative power. For example, mantrotherapy in Tibetan medicine. The sound should be harmonious or it will be cacophony. We listen not only by ears, but by body – by every cell.
Rhythm, melody, harmony, timbre, tone, vibration, power and volume – all these are characteristics of the sound.
Myths and Realities of the Tibetan singing bowls Legends about the appearance of Tibetan singing bowls The Chinese believed that spirits lived in the products of bronze, for example, swords and vessels. (A. Heuser, Singing Bowls. Exercises for a personal harmony M., “Dilya”, 2005 p.46). Until now, there is no information about the exact purpose of such products. Maybe they were used as a vessel for food, sacrificial vessel, ritual or music.
Description of the symbolic construction of the orchestra in a Tibetan temple is represented in the book Rudy Jansen. (Singing Bowls. Practical guidance on the use / Tr. from English. – SPb.: Publisher “Dilya”, 2009, p. 18–19).
Retreat practice with Tibetan singing bowls, the Himalayas, the plateau of the cave of Milarepa, 4032m
Legend of meteorites. According to this legend, Tibetan singing bowls existed and were used in the practice of the monks in Tibet, but their properties were missing something. And then the monks appealed to the supreme beings and gods to help them. In response to their request meteor rain was sent down to the Earth, which allowed to include meteoric iron in the standard alloy, from which the bowls were made. Since then, the bowls began to possess unique properties.
The legend about the wandering blacksmiths. The legend says that in Tibet lived blacksmiths who were creating Tibetan singing bowls directly on the request of one who asked them to make it. They could forge a bowl for every need – from economic to spiritual. These blacksmiths lived near the deposits, where all necessary for the alloy of a certain quality was. And they hammered the bowls
directly on the stones of Tibet. And when the ore or the alloy were ending in this place, they went on to look for new deposits. They were not just the blacksmiths, but blacksmiths who were performing specific spiritual practices. In those days it was impossible to find a new mine ore required for the production of Tibetan singing bowls without such practices, and without communication with higher powers.

Tibetan singing bowls in the modern world I can say with confidence that today Tibetan singing bowls are not only a musical instrument but a completely real thins that can affect on a human or an animal, and they have some scientifically determinable physical and mechanical properties. Research, conducted by my students in physically oriented therapy and bioenergy, confirmed this. As an example, the personal experience in using Tibetan singing bowls in combination with classical therapeutic massage , I noted a huge reduction of the acute period of ischialgia and lumbodynia and increasing the duration of remission periods in my patients. Nowadays, this clinical research has not been conducted because of the high price of it.
Singing Bowl, Japan, 2015
In 2014, we conducted a research expedition with the intention to find answers to many questions about the practice of Tibetan singing bowls in the Himalayas to Mount Annapurna 3 and to the cave of Milarepa, to the mystical Mount Kailash and in the sacred lakes Manasarovar and Rakshastal, in the ancient complex of caves Sunducki and Pandora and in the cave Koshkulakskaya in Khakassia and in the reserve “Pillars” in Krasnoyarsk.
In 2015, we plan the research expeditions to Bhutan, and to the forbidden kingdom of Mustang. It’s known that traditions of Tantric (Tibetan) Buddhism are still in safe in Bhutan and Ladakh. Unlike Tibet, these countries and regions avoided the influence of China. And as a consequence of such a Cultural Revolution, as a result of which in the Tibetan China a huge number of the cultural values and also the bearers of traditions had been destroyed.
Today it is very difficult to find a real bearer of the traditions of spiritual or healing practices with Tibetan singing bowls. This is because over the time they physically become less and less. In addition, only few can keep line tradition clean and pass it to next generations. And even more, integrating or bringing in these practices something of your own, that means to take to yourself the responsibility to carry it into the world! That is because of the probability of errors and lack of understanding or feeling is very big.
Furthermore, any research in this sphere, as expeditions with the purpose to find mediums of traditions cost a lot in terms of time and budget.
Ethnic residents of the regions of Tibet (Tibet Autonomous Region, China) and the Himalayas (in areas around Annapurna) respect the Tibetan singing bowls. They are very interested in practices with bowls, because other people haven’t
got them. And if in the Himalayas (Nepal), the residents were interested in Tibetan singing bowls, they wanted bowls to help them give up “smoking”, the Tibet Autonomous Region of China the ethnic Tibetans showed rather spiritual and religious interest to the bowls. For objectivity in the expedition to Kailas in September 2014 Tibetan singing bowl which brought particular interest was with the image of Green Tara rapped on the outer perimeter of the mantra Om Mani Padme-Hum in Tibetan language.

To show in summary the information above, it should be noted that: 1. Tibetan singing bowls have a certain influence on the human body and animals, this influence is shown in the harmonization of the psycho-emotional state of a person. 2. Tibetan singing bowls, using them in certain procedures, submitted by the tradition, allow to work on psychosomatic blocks in the body, causing a reaction.
To be objective, it should be noted that control or manage of these processes are impossible for us nowadays. 3. Statement of some authors about scientific unprovability of Planetary tones of the Tibetan singing bowls seems to us erroneous. At the same time, we believe that the vibroacoustic impact of the Tibetan singing bowls on the human body is the phenomenon that can’t be denied! 4. Real examples of looses and studies of psychophysiological blocks as a result of an effect of Tibetan singing bowls by some of our patients certainly deserve even more studies. 5. Our studies of the impact of Tibetan singing bowls on the human body with the help of devices and programs of variative pulsometry show that the phenomenon of contact and contactless exposure of Tibetan singing bowls exists, and this phenomenon is scientifically confirmed.
Technology of manufacturing of Tibetan singing bowls In November 2013 we were lucky enough to visit the production of Tibetan singing bowls. And not only lucky to watch, but also to take part in some of the stages of production of Tibetan singing bowls, as well as to receive teachings about the nuances of production of Tibetan singing bowls from our Master. Here is the main conclusion about the visit of the production of Tibetan singing bowls and received instruction from the Master:
Singing Bowl, Japanese style
1. Production of Tibetan singing bowls and bowls for tourists and their production for the mystical and spiritual healing practices has a whopping difference! 2. Production of Tibetan singing bowls is a laborious process that requires the development of certain skills, however, as in any other affair- at the level of professionalism.
3. There are at least three common technologies of manufacturing of Tibetan singing bowls: Tibetan style, Nepali style and Indian style. You can also note two more exotic styles: Japanese and Thai (Vietnam). Due to the small distribution or, more precisely, because of the rarer using of this styles with the property of healing, we can not focus on them. 4. Many elements affect on the quality of the Tibetan singing bowls: the structure of the ore, the quantitative and qualitative structure of the alloy from which the bowl is made, micro-climatic characteristics of the region, where the Tibetan singing bowls are made, the skills of Masters involve in the production of Tibetan singing bowls in one or another technological operation, storage and transport of Tibetan singing bowls – as well as at the stage of manufacture to point of sale and as well as from the point of sale to the place of practice.
All which is above is only the first conclusions. Further analysis and decoding of audio and video recordings, as well as the systematization of the teachings and observations of Master which were given to Tsering Ngodrubu (Viktor Ogui) would lift the veil of secrecy over the objects of power – the Tibetan singing bowls, dust off unsubstantiated mystery and scientifically prove high efficiency of the Tibetan singing bowls for healing, prevention, spiritual and mystical practices.
Production of Tibetan singing bowls forged. Victor Oguy, Nepal, 2013.
Types of Tibetan singing bowls (Classification of Ogui V., 2013)
ccording to the technology of production:
Forged
Forged bowls are made by traditional manual way of forging hemispherical certain alloy billets. Historically, this is the first method of producing Tibetan singing bowls. Today, in such way Tibetan singing bowls are made mainly in Nepal and India. These singing bowls are used in the practice of Tibetan singing bowls massage. Generally, Generally, the method of extracting the sound from fr om them – shock method. In I n addition, by the production of them in a certain way it may be possible to remove the sound by friction.
Cast
Cast singing bowls are produced by the tide of the alloy in the form, and then by properly processing by hand or by machine. Cast singing bowls are made mainly in north India. Singing Bowls are made by molding, designed mainly to removing the sound by friction. From the esoteric point of view, these bowls are suited for spot (local) impact contact method of introducing energy (pranu, tsy, chi) directly in the place of contact for the elimination of negative energy or simply excess energy at the place of application contact the cast singing bowl with the human body. It is really a secret technique, and mediums of tradition rarely pass to Europeans information about it.
Stamped (factory, souvenir)
By stamping from blanks stamped singing bowls are made predominantly by industrial way from low qualitative metal for sale in souvenir shops and stores. Such bowls are not usually used for practices.
By the structure and form:
Thin
Thin singing bowls are very rare today! The original technology of their production didn’t survive. There is an assumption that this kind of bowls made by forging and joining two sheets and this technology forms an air space between them. These bowls were very light. The structure of the alloy were also very different from the structure of the alloy of forged or cast modern bowls.
Thick
Thick singing bowls are a variety of forged bowls having a sufficiently thick wall.
Bu the quantity and quality quality f structure of metals in the alloy: alloy:
5–7—9—13 metals
Depending on the presence in the composition of the alloy, of which the Tibetan singing bowls are made, they may include 5–7—9 and 13 components. The most rare and unique Tibetan singing thickets contain “meteoric iron.” The most famous TSB is that in which alloy contains seven metals: gold, silver, mercury, copper, iron, tin and lead.
By the time of production
Full-Moon
Many sellers and manufacturers of Tibetan singing bowls in Nepal and India argue that there are certain practices that allow you to attach some mystical properties to manufactured bowls. For example, Tibetan bowls made at the full moon, have an ability characterized by the influence of the full moon on the structures of the human body and can be used for the magical practices.
By Material
Metal
Metal Tibetan singing bowls are made from an alloy of various metals.
Quartz (crystal)
Quartz or “crystal” singing bowls are produced industrially from the material used in the production of microprocessors. Removing the sound of them is
possible only by friction of the walls, and the spectrum of the sound of the bowls is very narrow.
By date of production
Antique
Antique bowls are conditionally all the singing bowls, produced until 1959 – until the moment when Tibet was incorporated into the PRC.
Modern
Modern bowls are bowls made in our time (after 1959).
Antique Singing Bowl, the Himalayas, 2015
Symbolism and images on the Tibetan singing bowls Symbols and designs with sacred or spiritual orientation are drawn on the Tibetan singing bows by stamping or application. There are gods, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas on the bowls. Images of eight noble characters of Buddhism are presented on the bowls very often. The local population of Tibet, 99 % of whom are Buddhists, have obviously very respectful and reverential attitude to any symbolism, somehow connected with the Dharma (the Teaching). That is why local pilgrims who were with us in monasteries and places of power in Tibet and the Himalayas approached us and examined Tibetan singing bowls with interest, and gladly responded to the proposal to put it on their heads. That is why I would like to caution practitioners with Tibetan singing bowls from disrespect to them, especially to those which are the symbols of Buddhism. Even just pull the foot toward teachers or towards altar top is considered very disrespectful for a Buddhist! The reality today is that the Tibetan singing bowls are actively beginning to be applied in the industry of fitness and wellness. Including procedures with water (and this is one of the strongest acting properties of Tibetan singing bowls). From an ethical point of view, any religion which master follows should be respected. If you take a good bowl without any pictures and pour water in it, and remove the vibration, wash the feet and legs, this will be useful for the feet. Although many masters and lamas in Tibet and Ladakh showed us that even one single on the bowl characterizing Buddhism, even the corporate symbol of Master makes this bowl related to the Teaching (Buddhism). Of course, follow or not to follow these recommendations is a private matter of an expert of beauty industry or of the private practice. As an example, there is an article describing the eight auspicious symbols of Buddhism below.
The eight auspicious symbols of the Dharma
The eight auspicious symbols of the Dharma
Trashi tagye (Tib.)
According to the legend, when Buddha Sakyamuni attained the enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, the gods gave him eight auspicious symbols: the first of the Gods Brahma appeared with a golden Buddha Dharmachakra – Wheel of the Teaching; heavenly God Indra brought a white conch to proclaim the true doctrine; earth God Stavara brought a precious vessel full of the nectar of immortality; other Gods of Buddha brought two gold fish, the lotus flower, the banner of victory and a precious umbrella [Chemitdorzhiev 2010: 48–49].
All of the eight symbols has become Symbols of Dharma (Skt. Teaching of Buddha), indicating her direct link with the life of people. As the wisdom of
the Buddha’s teachings can achieve prosperity and happiness, these symbols are also called the eight symbols of luck.
1. Precious Umbrella PRECIOUS Umbrella (Tib. Arcs) is the symbol of protection, royal majesty, wealth, power and social status. Coolness presented by the precious umbrella protects from the scorching rays of suffering, insurmountable unfulfilled desires, neuroses and malicious forces.
2. The precious vase VASE (tib. bumpa) – the symbol of a secret treasure, vault of nectar of wellbeing, health and long life. Jewelry is pouring from it, defending someone who is developing on the spiritual way, of poverty and untimely death.
3. White sink WHITE SINK (Tib. Dungkar) – a symbol of the vibrating sound of the Dharma which make beings get up from the sleep of ignorance. Reaching the ears of beings with different abilities and predispositions, the sounds of the Buddha’s teachings resonate with the inner nature of things, opening the way to liberation, encouraging to listen to the best in yourself, think, and then enter the Bodhicharya-avatar (Way of the Bodhisattva).
4. Victorious sign Victorious sign (tib. gyaltsen) – a sign of military superiority. It means a victory over suffering, death and ignorance. It is a symbol of victory over all internal and external constraints, overcoming of all obstacles – mainly it is two curtains: five disturbing emotions (and their combinations) and rigid ideas.
5. A pair of goldfish PAIR goldfish (Tib. Sulfuric) – a symbol of courage and joy with which the fish in the ocean of samsara swims, independently choosing its direction and is not afraid of suffering. Symbol of lightness and well rebirth of bodhisattvas in the worlds of Samsara (Skt.; conditioned existence) and the ability to joyfully and freely slide on its waves.
6. Lotus Flower Lotus Flower (Tib. Pema) indicates Awakening – full flowering of the potential of Buddha. As a lotus grows from the mud and slime and expand, maintaining its unblemished beauty on the surface of the marsh, as beings punch through the dirt and defilements of samsara, carrying on shining qualities of the absolute through life, absolute means “mind”, such as intuitive wisdom, happiness, courage, active compassion and love.
7. An endless knot Endless knot (tib. palbeu) – infinity symbol of knowledge and intellectual depth, Buddha’s teachings (Dharma) out of concept. It demonstrates the interdependence of all conditioned things and phenomenons manifested in the world, the unity, non-duality of the exhibition and void.
8. Wheel of Dharma Wheel of Dharma (Skt. Dharmachakra; Tib., Chokyi Khorlo) – a symbol of the gift of liberating teachings of the Buddha (see an article “Wheel of Dharma”). Buddhas rotate golden Dharma wheel in all the worlds to help beings get rid of ignorance – the source of all suffering.
All these signs also can be found singly.
A frequent motive for jewelry and ornaments. Eight symbols of the Dharma decorate ritual scarves of Hadak, cymbals, are found in national things, clothing, in the symbolism on the banknotes and coins of Buddhist countries. For example, the sink is a symbol that appears on the coins of Bhutan.
Eight symbols of the Dharma surround Buddha Vairochana in his mandala.
Properties of the Tibetan singing bowls Physical
Tibetan singing bowls have certain physical properties. For example, while removing the sound from the TSB by blow of the stick, the cup wall vibrate mechanically acting on the surrounding area: while contact with the human body, causing a mechanical action on the tissues and body fluids. In the case of non-contact action the oscillatory motion of the walls of bowls will be felt by exposed portions of the human body like a “breeze”.
In addition to mechanical vibrations and oscillations of TSB walls which osculate tissues of the human body, a range of audible sound perceived by human central nervous system will have the physical properties.
Esoteric (Mystical)
Mystical Properties of TSB are phenomenons peculiar to TSB, which have no scientific explanation or which devices for registration are nor available. For example, the work of TSB as the resonator (or generator) of some universal energy, which may be destined with a help of intention (affermation) in this or that direction.
Buddhist temple in the Himalayas
Action of the Tibetan singing bowls per person Homeopathy of metals from alloy
There is an assumption that the trace of alloy of TSB in direct contact with the body may be affect the it in homeopathic doses.
Kransiosacral impact
In the tradition of Tsering Ngodrub at the beginning of procedures or practices with Tibetan singing bowls a component of the reception is when forged singing bowl of sufficient size is worn on the head by and the vibration is removed from it by rubber stick. This technique seems to us as a necessary practice in any practice with TSB. Protocol in ten steps of kransiosacral therapy Applendzheru includes effects on the bone of the skull and the diaphragm by 4 soft manual treatment with a force of no more than 5 grams per square centimeters. We are confident that the contact proring of TSB has a similar effect on the body’s structures.
Mechanical vibration
Tibetan singing bowls, from which the sound (vibration) is removing one way or another way due to vibration of the walls, mechanically effect on human tissue.
The impact of the sound resonance
There is an assumption that every organ in the human body has a certain frequency response, that means it vibrates with a specific frequency. Moreover, the frequency of vibration of a healthy body will differ from the frequency of the vibration of the body with any pathology. Presumably, the TSB that has characteristics of the frequency in a range of vibration frequencies of a healthy body, it will positively influence on the pathological organ, “pulling” its’ unhealthy vibrations to the “healthy” vibration of TSB.
As music
Tibetan singing bowls, matched with the notes could be used for playing the music with their help.
Brain biorhythms
Biorhythms of the brain are certain characteristics of the functioning of the human brain, characteristics for certain physiological conditions. There is speculation that TSB can affect a person, stimulating the brain to function in a particular biorhythm. For example, the TSB can enter a person into altered states of consciousness (ASC), just as shaman drum.

Theta rhythm ( 3,5–7 Hz): calm state, a dream, inspiration and dreams, visualization, fantasy
lpha rhythm ( 7—14 Hz): relaxed concentration, calm, serene mind. Alpha is a “bridge” between the conscious and the subconscious.
Beta-rhythm ( 14–28 Hz): Logical thinking, active attention, but also there is an aggression, stress and frustration.
Mechanical affection on tissues and organs The mechanical affection of TSB removing the vibration from them will affect the human tissues and organs. As an example, we can consider the analogy of taking a stable uninterruptible vibration in classical Russian massage, which affects the human body by sedative way. Also, TSB located near the lymph node will produce surging (pumping) if you remove the vibration from it. And when you move the TSB in the projection of the surface of lymphatic vessels it will have lymph drainage property.

The impact on the psychosomatic problems TSB affect the psychosomatic problems. Today, to manage this process is not possible, since there is no proof about relationship of tensions and blocks in various parts of the body with mental health problems. At the same time it is reasonable to build on the experience in body-oriented therapy. Particularly, the theory of musculo-fascial stress by the Reich. Reich found that chronic muscle clamps block three main motivations: anxiety, anger and sexual arousal. He came to the conclusion that the physical (muscle) and the psychological armor are the same things. To learn how to get rid of the exaggerated and misplaced clips, blocking feelings – this is only one aspect of the psychological growth of the individual.
Book Viktor Ogui “Tibetan singing bowls in the work of the psychologist”
Esoteric (magic) affection Moreover, many schools offer training of practices or massage with Tibetan singing bowls, reduce the impact of TSB primarily to the sound of music or to the esoteric aspects such as compliance of certain notes, human energy centers – chakras. Some schools refer to the “mysterious knowledge,” which were given to them by masters, producing bowls in Nepal, they offer a completely different notes to the chakras. For example, there is such a version – Vedic (Hindu) system of performance of chakras and their compliance with the notes.
There is an another table, which is called “Tibetan” or received “… from a Tibetan monastery …”
In this case it is necessary to clarify a number of important points! As a result of meeting with the doctors who PRACTICE Tibetan medicine in Ladakh, Dharamsala, Lhasa, Shigatse, Europe and other regions, as well as on the basis of scientifically provable facts we can aim that: In traditional Tibetan medicine, there are two types of anatomy: Normal anatomy and special anatomy with more subtle level, which is mentioned in the “Bum Shi” and in “Jude Shi” (treatises on Tibetan medicine). Historically, the system of chakras and channels were developing in two directions. One of them considers the chakras and channels as part of the secret tantric teachings. This knowledge will never become public. The second considers the subtle anatomy as an integral part of Tibetan Medicine. For example, Dr. Nida Chenagtsang wrote a dissertation of bachelor of subtle anatomy with a help of Professor at the University of Lhasa (Tibet Autonomous Region) and teaches a part of it in the section of the course “External procedures. Ku Nye-2 “in Europe.
Ku Nye Traditional Tibetan Massage. Ku Nye School. Course textbook of the Second Level by Dr. Nida Chenagtsang. Sorig Publications. MATTM 2010. It says that the chakras are the energy centers, in which the energy rises and removes to the rest of the body by various channels of the system. The thin aspect of energy of five elements is the source of five chakras, and on a deeper level – the source of all the components of the physical body. Breathing is associated with the five elements of the energy chakras (on the inside level each chakra corresponds to one of the Winds, which is associated with the chakras), and every breath is associated with all five winds. He leads the table corresponding to each of the five chakras with the primary element (water, fire, space, earth, air), mantra, root (seed) to the syllable, color and shape.
Thus, the assertion of some “mysterious system of conformity notes with chakras, which came from the monasteries of Tibet, this system refers to the 7 (seven) chakras is wrong and there is no documentary evidence, other than references to some masters in Nepal.
In addition, one of the esoteric aspects of Tibetan bowls is their symbolism. BOWL (as a circle) represents the feminine, and STICK (as vertical, lingam) – masculine; SOUND – Activity and SILENCE – passivity.

According to a survey by the “stress test” and on the basis of personal subjective experience it can be concluded that the Tibetan bowls vibration therapy improves the quality of patients’ health. health. First of all, it affects the central nervous and cardiovascular system, as it was observed in the analysis of “stress tests” and, indirectly, on other systems of the body, particularly on the musculoskeletal system (from personal experience). It is not necessary to consider this experience as the ultimate truth, but it should be considered as an interesting observation on the recovery of the resources of the human body by unconventional and fascinating ancient techniques, which include therapy of Tibetan bowls”.

Antonina Kozyreva, Novosibirsk. Dissertation: “The aim of this work was to study the possibility of correction of psychoemotional sphere by sound therapy. Throughout the process we have studied the concept of art therapy and its impact on the psycho-emotional sphere. We described the concept of psycho-emotional sphere, its components, we researched the problem of its imbalance. There was an empirical study. According to our hypothesis it was supposed to confirm that the Tibetan bowls sound therapy is an effective method of correction of psycho-emotional sphere.
During the study we obtained the following conclusions: 1. There are differences between the test and control groups, when the test group had positive changes that were safe in dynamics.
2. The reduction of the aggressive performance of scales Bass-Darko after MTPCH is proved, but dynamic character is not revealed. 3. The decrease of personal anxiety of scale Spielberger is confirmed after MTPCH, its index was safe in dynamics. 4. The group, who was on sessions MTPCH where was high mood level in dynamics, has an increasing of scales of health, activity and mood by test called SAN. Thus, our hypothesis was confirmed. Vibro-acoustic massage by Tibetan singing bowls can be used as an effective method of correction of psychoemotional sphere.”

How to remove the sound from Tibetan singing bowls Sticks The most common way to remove the sound from TSB is using sticks (mallets, pistils) by beating or friction techniques. By beating the sound removes from the small equilateral TSB by straight sticks. From large TSB the sound removes by rubber sticks, they have something in common with the drum sticks. To remove the sound from a large TSB by friction you need big round sticks. Friction is performed with force placing the stick from different angles of the upper edge of the bowl walls. When you remove the sound by beating, the stick may be from the outside part of the bowl centripetaly or vice versa. You may destine your force close to the top or to the bottom edge of the TSB.

Palm
There is a method for removing the vibration of a sufficiently large bowls with a base palm. For this, keeping the TSB in one hand, base of the palm of the other hand strikes the upper third of the wall.

How to choose a Tibetan singing bowl The most common suggestion to choose the Tibetan singing bowl in two ways: Intuitive (like – don’t like, answering – no answer) or by frequency characteristics: by the sound (the notes).

What determines the price (cost) of the Tibetan singing bowls 1. The quality of the bowls 2. their mood (in common with yours) 3. Completeness of the sale 4. Seller.
The quality of the bowl:
1. Range (latitude range) of its sound. 2. Characteristics of mechanical properties of vibration. 3. The composition of the alloy from which the bowl is made. 4. The energy component (scientifically it’s unprovable, but it feels at practices). 5. antique or artistic or cultural values. 6. The duration of the sound / vibration damping. The size or weight of the bowl – it is a controversial point of its quality.
A good bowl is that which vibration responds in the body in contact or noncontact exposure. Vibration of the walls of such bowl is physically felt in the body by non-contact method.
It seems to us an empirical way to select a bowl, but it is inefficient for physicians / patients with low sensitivity.
The offered method of selection of bowls is more focused on physical factors available to be determined by almost any person.

The sort of quality of bowls or their content of five or more metals seems to be the most subjective and questionable today, as the spectral analysis of the metal, from which the bowl is made, is expensive, it requires a rare equipment and what is mostly important – it can traumatize the bowl! As a result, it can substantially change its sound-vibration characteristics.
The minimum set, which is recommended in the tradition of Tsering Ngodrub: three medium bowl +1 large and 1 small. This will allow to do all the methods. In the future, you can purchase 2 bowls. Even with a bowl of medium size, the practitioner will be able to perform virtually all practices and procedures – individually and in groups: Traditional Tibetan singing bowls massage, a technique “Contact sound” – as an independent process, and integrating it with the classic massage in bath technology in a Russian bath, or hamam; group or individual meditation; paired practice, practice with pets, shamanic journeys and so on.

The simplest methods of health and meditation practices with the help of Tibetan singing bowls
Meditation with Tibetan singing bowl Meditation with Tibetan singing bowl allows you to stop the internal dialogue easily. Relaxed, you remove the sound from the Tibetan singing bowl, focusing your attention on its characteristics without marks, just trying to watch the sound and feel it. It is recommended to do such sessions for 15–20 minutes before 1.5– 2 hours before bedtime.
Book Viktor Ogui: “Meditation with Tibetan singing bowls”
Self-massage using Tibetan singing bowls Tibetan singing bowl is placed on a particular area of the body, and the vibration is removed from it. For example, midsize Tibetan singing bowl is stably placed on the front surface of person’s chest. The sound is removed from the bowl by the impact Stick. Or in sitting position, Tibetan singing bowl is placed on the thighs, the person removes the sound from it by friction.

Partner practice with the Tibetan singing bowl The practice of massage or meditation in pairs Tibetan singing bowls for couples effects on all areas of the human body, harmonizes and builds relationships in couple, allows us to develop the domestic partner’s feeling at heart level and stimulates openness.
For couples who are at the stage start there are special paired practice, conducted by Master, these practice will be useful because it will make you feel the true ego of the partner, his aura; it will allow to see and hear the status of the partner in the beginning of a relationship, while the partner can manifest himself in social life quite differently because of his programs, behavior models and complex.
For couples whose relations are in conflict state, but still there is mutual respect and the desire to change the situation, improve and maintain relationships or harmonize them, specific practices with Tibetan singing bowls will be very useful.
In addition, a special practice with TSB allows to balance the quality state of energy in the pair in terms of Yin-Yang, that means, male and female beginnings. For example, a woman in a pair had an aspect stronger masculine energy, activity, there is no softness and smoothness. Paired practice allows to show and accentuate in woman her inner woman, the Goddess.
Thus, at any stage of the relationship in a pair of man-woman, in any qualitative composition of their original energy, with a help of the practice of Tibetan singing bowls it is possible to harmonize the energy, and the relationship itself through smooth interaction in pairs or within human himself.
There are Tibetan singing bowls with images of similar reliefs and sculptures of the temples of Khajuraho (India) showing Kama Sutra. And bowls with images typical for practicals of Tantric Buddhism (Buddha-form pair bodhisattvas Yab Yum). This BOWLS are used in couple practices, and they are particularly effective as they carry symbols and energy of the interaction of men and women.

Practices in an altered state of consciousness (shamanic journey and return of parts of the soul) with the help of Tibetan bowls Use of Tibetan singing bowls allows to get a person into an altered state of consciousness similar to the trance into which gets the shaman through tambourine. In the altered state of consciousness a human can make a journey to different worlds and spaces. Such practices with a help of Master and Tibetan singing bowls allow a person to make a trip to the Upper World to teachers and mentors in the Lower World to meet their fears or the middle world, practicing various forms and manifestations of the interaction in the social environment. According to the theories of shamanism, as a result of strong affection or emotional turmoil a person loses or leaves a part of his soul in the past events. The absence of one or another part of the soul makes a person posting inconsistent, a person experiences feelings of inadequacy, suffering, frustration, as he has the connection with the event, and he constantly returns to the memory while keeping their energy there. With the help of Tibetan singing bowls people with Master can travel and take the parts of the soul and bring them back, found theirselves entirely again.

Integration of the practices with Tibetan singing bowls in practice with the Universal Energy of Reiki Universal Energy of Reiki today is already a proven fact. Reiki is a universal energy which absolutely anyone can use. A necessary condition for this is socalled “connection” or “tuning” of a person on the frequency of this energy. After a person once tuned to this frequency, the ability to use the properties of this energy stays with him for whole life. All this fits in esoteric, and even scientific aspects of the impact of Tibetan singing bowls per person. A bright example may be an analogy with water: water is the universal solvent, which has certain properties of the physical and chemical nature. But the adding other chemical components in water (such as potassium permanganate – it will change the color of water, salt – taste will be changed) or the application of other physical conditions (at subzero temperatures – water freezes and goes into the aggregate state of the ice, with a high temperature of over 100 degrees Celsius – water boils, and it will move into steam). So Reiki energy is universal in its properties and quality. But its application and the direction is controlled by a specific technology (the method), and the intention of the person tuned to its frequency. A unique feature of Reiki energy is that it is completely regulated by the highest goods of the universe. In my vision this universal energy can have other names, but its primary property is the fact that it is universal.
There are techniques, methods and practices which can help you to integrate the use of the Universal Energy of Reiki in practice with Tibetan singing bowls, thus strengthening the harmonious and healthy effect of both methods. There is a speculation that monks in monasteries in the Himalayan highlands did such practices.

Massage using Tibetan singing bowls for pets Massage using Tibetan singing bowls for pet is used for the treatment and prevention of chronic colds without medicines. This is an effective method of natural healing. Many techniques used for humans are also applicable for animals. For example, the impact of Tibetan singing bowls can reduce the animal’s aggressiveness.

Harmonization of space (room cleaning) using Tibetan singing bowls In life in modern stressful social situations many conflict communications leave emotionally “heavy atmosphere” in the rooms or places where the person lives. Many people, even a little sensitive people may feel fear, depression, anxiety, grief or sadness in such places. As an example, children’s homes and hospitals. I am deeply convinced that the practice of Tibetan singing bowls in such places will harmonize the atmosphere even without people.
The simplest example of practices with Tibetan singing bowl for the harmonization of space (or room cleaning) from negative energy will be to remove the sound in the room for 40–50 minutes. More sophisticated technique may become a ritual of dealing with the Tibetan singing bowl and removing the sound from it in the perimeter (or in certain sacred picture) in a space that need to be harmonized.

Structuring (charge) of the liquid using Tibetan singing bowls It is well known that water has the ability to collect information and to wash it in itself. The simplest example is the research related to the impact on the structure of water prayers (mantras) or swearing. Harmonious sound of Tibetan singing bowls affects the water, and this effect is similar to prayer. Sound improves its structure. Such water can be used in various fields of human activity. However, I don’t recommend Practices to drink it! It is difficult to say exactly what elements and compounds are in the alloy from which the bowls are made, especially in the case of their oxidation.
To structure (charge) water (liquid) it is necessary to place the Tibetan singing bowl in the liquid or the liquid in the bowl, and then remove the sound for 40–50 minutes. In my private practice, there is a positive experience in structuring and using of massage oils.

Harmonization of the human biofield (aura alignment) with the help of Tibetan singing bowls Practices with Tibetan singing bowls allow to harmonize the human biofield. It is known that diseases, stress, and other pathological things negatively affect on the human aura, and this leads to further deterioration. Tibetan singing bowls “align” aura by its harmonious vibrations, harmonizing the human condition.

Harmonization of the human energy system (chakras) with the help of Tibetan singing bowls According to the theory of traditional Tibetan medicine and Vedic texts, apart from the physical human body there is an energy (thin) body which structure is made of energy centers (chakras) and the system of channels through which there is a moving of thin energy which is necessary for the harmonious functioning of the physical body. Various pathogenic factors may adversely affect these energy centers, affect their activities, and through this – activity of the physical body. There is an assumption that each chakra is functioning at a certain frequency characterizing one of the notes an octave. Tibetan singing bowls which have the frequency of vibrations (sound) similar to the note (frequency) which the chakra operates with, they will transmit this vibration, improving its function if there is a breach, bowls will fill the chakra energy.

Practice with Tibetan singing bowls in places of power of the planet Many places of power of our planet have the properties to allocate huge amounts of energy, similar to Reiki energy or energy possessing not universal, but specific properties (Kailas in Tibet, the mountain towns in the ancient kingdom of Guge in Western Tibet, a mountain complex “Sunducki” caves “Pandora” and “Kushkulatskaya” in Khakassia, the dolmens in the Krasnodar region, the lake Svetloyar in Nizhny Novgorod region, etc.). However, to gain access and to start using this energy in places of power of the planet we must perform certain practices for “discovery” of a place, setting it on a vibration of this energy and adaptation to the properties specific to a particular energy. Such technology allows to use the resources of these places with minimal risk. Practices with Tibetan singing bowls allow to execute all these manipulations with minimal risk and maximum efficiency.

Master’s autobiography For 20 years I practiced classical Russian massage therapeutic use or in rehabilitation medicine, as well as in the practice of sport. The first nine years I worked for a massage therapist in the municipal hospital № 23 in Nizhny Novgorod (Russia). There I owned great experience in medical (rehab) massage – I worked as with patients who had pneumonia and bronchitis, as well as with patients in a coma in intensive care with a diagnosis of meningitis or meningoencephalitis; with patients having poliomielitopodobnoe disease or low back pain, scoliosis, or various forms of spinal hernias. I just can’t list all of these!
In general, working in municipal medical institutions in Russia in the past and now is great practical (and life!) experience that can’t be accumulated in any of the commercial medical institutions!
At the same time I started to teach the course “massage” with the help of the invitation of one of the training centers for retraining the population. The quality of methodical material, which was available at the time, didn’t satisfy me, and I began to prepare my handbook, which was very convenient and efficient in the use of massage training courses. All this was very successful and effective, and it allowed to publish this handbook in Rostov-on-Don, edition of 5000 copies in 2004.: “Classical Russian massage for 15 days. A teaching aid. “It should be noted that today this handbook is a rarity.
Then I actively explored, developed and created a variety of massage techniques in Russian, Turkish (steam) and other ethnic baths. Also, during the training of staff employed in these areas, in spas and fitness clubs – I had prepared a series of books on various massage techniques. Especially, I am proud of the book “Bath massage”, which was published by the St. Petersburg publishing house “Peter” in 2008 (Russia), edition of 4000 copies., And the following year it was republished, it has an edition of 5,000 copies. Both of these publications are
already rarities. I’m very proud that in 2008, it was translatedq into the Lithuanian language and published in Lithuania (Vilnius: Satwa), edition of 1000 copies.
Ten years out of twenty, I practiced and studied massage in the spa and beauty industry. During this time I was lucky enough to learn something from many great masters in the field: I studied lymphatic drainage massage techniques of Pascal Cochet, Spanish massage of Enrique Garcia, craniosacral therapy of Marian Cisco, Japanese shiatsu massage of Rosero Trujillo (Charo), Tibetan massage Ku Nye of Dr. Nida Changtsanga, Ayurvedic massage of Ramesh, Tibetan massage by the tradition Amdo of Tsering and many other masters. All of the techniques that I learned, I necessarily applied in practices, and after this I integrated them into my regular practice of massage.
All these years, I have maintained my regular practice as a masseur – I worked directly with patients.
In 2009, my dreams came true and I’ve traveled to India for month: Delhi, Varanasi, Bodgaya, Khajuraho, Rishikesh, Haridwar, Dharamsala, Manali, Shimla, Relavsar, Delhi – these are just the most significant landmarks of my ourney. During my school years, and the years of study in medical school, I diligently studied and practiced yoga under the guidance of Victor Vladimirovich Dundukov, who in his turn, during the Soviet era, studied with Gennady Statsenko. That youthful interest to this mysterious and mystical country, led me to India in 2009. A desire to see and feel the life inside the country, the capital of yoga, Buddhist relics – all these irresistibly drawn me Asia … I am very happy that I traveled around the country like a “savage”, moving by public transport (who was in India of those times can imagine what it was!), staying in budget hostels – all of this allowed us to see the country and its inhabitants “from the inside”. This is a very unusual and powerful experience! There was also the first time I met Tibetan singing bowls …
After India, I was lucky to get into even more mysterious and beautiful country – Tibet! To pass the inner and outer bark of Kailash, to visit the Guge mountain towns, to do some practices in places of the power in Tibet, and to leave there some part of you and of your heart! There my meeting with Tibetan singing bowls continued.
Then there were expeditions to Tibet and Little Tibet – Ladakh, in the Altai (Belukha climb Mount East), then back to Nepal … Meeting the monks and lamas in the mountain monasteries, performing spiritual practices of Tibetan traditional medicine in tradition of Yuthok Nyingthig. Meeting with native culture and practicing massage traditional for these regions. I was lucky to study Tibetan medicine, Buddhist spiritual practice for doctors of Tibetan medicine, mantratherapies and Tibetan massage Ku Nye with Doctor Nida Changtsanga. Inspired by his teachings, I performed two single gate retreat for Ngondro practice and Guru Yoga in the tradition of Yuthok Nitik, solitary retreats for healing mantras. Also, I was lucky to become a personal student and to receive instructions from Yogi Lama Pema Rangdrol, participate and sometimes assist him in the conduct of Buddhist practices and rituals.
At the same time, I met huntsman Anatoly Sergeyevich, who spent many years in Yakutia, who kindly gave me some folk pharmaceutical recipes based on our Russian natural resources. Using of them allowed me to help some of my patients and friends. In combination with the technologies of the Russian bath, they were giving a very strong health benefits.
All these years I continued to study the properties and effects of Tibetan bowls on the human body, not only the esoteric properties, but also scientific! Together with the doctor of fitness club Nadezhda Ryndyk we conducted studies about the influence of Tibetan singing bowls using the method of diagnosis of the functional state of the body with the help of variative pulsometry. And we got an unexpected and very interesting results! I was lucky to have a consultation with the famous bell-ringer in Suzdal, and to learn a lot about Russian bells and chimes, and to connect it with Tibetan singing bowls and so-called “temple bells.” And thanks to the friends of the Polytechnic Academy of scientists from
Nizhny Novgorod, they helped me to find out many aspects of the consist of the material from which made Tibetan singing bowls.
All this time, I continued my regular journeys and trainings with Master of the Sound and singing bowls in Nepal. I am very grateful that the Master and all the people helped me, and after three years I was lucky to travel to Nepal, to live in Master’s family, and to study with the master himself!
Today, I can say with confidence that the Tibetan singing bowls are not only a musical instrument or a mystical thing, they are completely real-life material tool which really and physiologically effects on the human or animal, it has definite and scientifically determinable physical and mechanical properties.
Research, conducted by my students Sergey Matveev and Tatiana Polyakova in body oriented therapy and bioenergy, confirmed it! As an example of the personal experience with the Tibetan singing bowls in combination with classical therapeutic massage – I noticed a significant reduction in the acute period of diseases of the musculoskeletal system, and an increase in periods of remission in my patients.
Unfortunately, formal clinical trials could not be done because of the high financial costs on such studies.
At the present time, and this is 2015, we plan to organize an expedition to the Kingdom of Bhutan and the Mustang in conjunction with the Centre for Development “Lakshmi” (Nizhny Novgorod), with the intention to find there the answers for many questions about the practice of Tibetan singing bowls. As it’s known, in Bhutan, Ladakh and Mustang, the tradition of Tantric (Tibetan) Buddhism is still alive. As these countries or regions, unlike Tibet, avoided interaction with China in 50–60 years, and as a result of so-called Cultural
Revolution, a huge number of cultural values and Tyne bearers of these traditions were destroyed in Tibetan China.

Today it is very difficult to find a real bearer of the traditions of spiritual or healing practices with Tibetan singing bowls. This is because over the time they physically become less and less. In addition, only few can keep line tradition clean and pass it to next generations. And even more, integrating or bringing in these practices something of your own, that means to take to yourself the responsibility to carry it into the world! That is because of the probability of errors and lack of understanding or feeling is very big.
In addition, any research in this area, as well as the expedition to find the bearers of traditions and saving the practices, is very expensive, as well as it is expensive in time-consuming resources.
