Tingshas (Ting-shags in Tibetan) are small, hand-cast ritual cymbals used in Tibetan Buddhist practice for centuries. Joined by a leather cord and struck together, they produce a pure, penetrating ring that is believed to clear negative energy, summon protective deities, and mark the beginning and end of meditation sessions. The sound of Tingshas is said to resonate across multiple realms, alerting spirits, purifying the environment, and helping the practitioner transition into a state of mindful awareness. They are used in pujas, space clearing, sound healing, meditation practice, and as offerings of sacred sound on the altar.
