About Our Ritual Item:
This gold-plated Kapala is a potent and holy ceremonial vase used in Tibetan Buddhist ceremonies and tantric practices. Traditionally known as a skull cup, the kapala is used to make sacrifices to enlightened deities and to represent the change of ignorance into wisdom. It is revered in Vajrayana rituals as a symbol of life's impermanence and the sacrifice of one's ego to achieve spiritual awakening.
This kapala is beautifully created with a copper body, silver plating, and gold-plated decorations. It measures 22.5cm in height and 16cm in breadth and weighs 0.59kg. Its surface is embellished with imitation coral and turquoise stones, which add vivid color and symbolic meaning. The intricate carvings and colorful motifs showcase Himalayan workmanship, making it both a utilitarian ritual instrument and a stunning work of holy art.
In Buddhist tradition, the ritual kapala is frequently put on altars during sacrifices and initiations in order to appease guardian deities and generate merit for practitioners. Beyond its ceremonial usage, it is a powerful reminder of impermanence, mindfulness, and the spiritual path. Whether used in practice, as part of a shrine, or as a collector's item, this gold-plated kapala symbolizes Tibetan Buddhism's deep symbolism and spiritual energy.
