Tibetan Buddhist Offering Conch
About The Sankha:
This magnificent Buddhist Ritual Conch (Sankha) is a stunning piece made from a genuine conch shell and gold plated on oxidized copper. Its elaborate design incorporates Buddhist imagery, including the Eight Auspicious Symbols representing blessings, wisdom, and protection. The wonderfully carved statues of the Five Buddhas sit at the center of the conch's exterior, representing enlightenment, peace, and harmony. On the other side, two Vishwa Vajra emblems are carved, indicating the dharma's indestructibility and unwavering force.
This conch, which is 43.5 cm tall and 23 cm wide, is a magnificent spiritual relic that exudes both beautiful artistic beauty and profound religious symbolism. The dragon-shaped handle adds even more symbolism to protection, insight, and spiritual direction. This conch is a highly cherished object in ceremonial activities since dragons are a powerful emblem of strength, authority, and the ultimate guardian of sacred teachings in Buddhist iconography.
This conch, which weighs 2.08 kg and is utilized in offering rituals, meditation, and chanting activities, is a potent addition to any Buddhist shrine or altar. It is not just a sacred instrument but also a timeless work of art that uplifts the spiritual atmosphere and attracts positive energy because of its fine workmanship and spiritual connotation. This conch is highly valued by both collectors and practitioners due to its unique blend of artistic carvings, symbolic images, and precious metals.
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.
