About The Sankha :
The Conch for Shrine is an excellent piece of craftsmanship. It measures 32 cm tall by 26 cm wide and weighs 1.506 kg. It is made of copper with silver plating, which creates a natural warmth in the copper. This lovely ritual object is embellished with artificial stones such as turquoise, ruby, and Panna, increasing its spiritual value. These stones are delicately set around the conch, highlighting its spiritual value while adding a visual aspect representing its heavenly function.
The conch shell, a symbol of auspiciousness utilized in Tibetan Buddhist rites, is meticulously crafted precisely. The turquoise and ruby stones are embedded in ornamental patterns, adding to their attractiveness. At the same time, the silver plating creates a smooth, reflecting surface that emphasizes the craftsmanship and expertise required for such a detailed design. The conch is decorated with spiraling motifs and extra adornments at the top and bottom, implying its sacred nature and use in rites. These carvings and embellishments transform it from a helpful ritual tool to a work of art that can be reverently displayed.
As a ceremonial object, the conch is frequently used in Buddhist activities to announce the start of prayers or represent the propagation of the Dharma. It is a significant present for spiritual seekers, practitioners, or collectors who want to deepen their connection to Buddhist traditions and rituals.
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.
