About The Conch :
The conch for the Altar is a beautifully crafted ritual item with silver-plated floral carvings adorned with artificial stones like turquoise and coral. The conch measures 5.5 cm in height, 14 cm in width, and weighs 0.178 kg. The intricate silver floral carvings on the outer part of the conch enhance its aesthetic appeal. The turquoise placed on the side and the coral on the top add vibrant color contrasts to the design, symbolizing both protection and spiritual wealth in Tibetan culture.
In addition to its decorative features, the conch is uniquely carved with symbolic representations of a fish and a deer. The fish, often associated with good fortune and abundance, and the deer, a symbol of peace and compassion, carry significant spiritual meaning in Buddhist iconography. The natural conch shell with these symbolic carvings and vibrant gemstone embellishments makes this item stand out. It is a ceremonial object and a work of art, combining spiritual symbolism with artisanal mastery, making it a cherished piece for ritualistic use and spiritual decor.
Introduction to Sankha:
In Buddhist worship, the conch shell is used as a trumpet or offertory receptacle and represents Buddha's spoken voice. It is one of the eight lucky Buddhist symbols, reflecting the victory of Buddha's teachings, which spread omnidirectionally like a conch shell's voice. The conch shell is a sign of power, authority, and sovereignty; its sound is thought to ward off evil spirits, prevent natural disasters, and frighten away dangerous creatures.
