Handmade Tibetan Torma
About Our Ritual Item:
The Torma, a ceremonial object used in Tibetan Buddhist culture, is a masterfully manufactured copper object with a brilliant gold plating. This Torma, which is 0.76 kg in weight and measures 25.5 cm in height and 14 cm in width, is an important and elaborate ritual tool. It is richly embellished with Buddhist artwork, which is made more striking by the inlay of vibrant turquoise and coral stones, which give the piece color and symbolic significance.
Traditionally, tormas have served as offerings in Tibetan Buddhist rituals, signifying both different facets of spiritual practice and the deities' sustenance. This Torma is an aesthetically pleasing and significant item because of the gold plating and the inlays of coral and turquoise. The intricate Buddhist artwork that covers the Torma is a reflection of the rich spiritual legacy of Tibetan culture. This makes the Torma a beautiful and sacred object that can be displayed in any altar or collection in addition to being a useful tool for rituals.
Introduction to Tormas
Tormas are made of barley flour and decorated with butter buttons. Metals such as copper, silver, and gold, on the other hand, are used. Metal-based tormas have the advantage of being more durable than perishable food tormas. A metal torma can be used for a variety of purposes, including symbolic weapons in repulsion rituals. Tormas are also frequently depicted in paintings that hang on the walls of temples dedicated to the wrathful deities. Torma offerings are typically used to appease ferocious Dharmapala such as the Mahakala and Shri Devi.
