This individual ritual item gains depth and spiritual meaning from the detailed skull patterns and colorful hand-painted decorations.
In Tibetan Buddhist and Tantric ceremonies, kapala bowls are extremely significant as symbols of impermanence and spiritual transformation. The cup's presence in any sacred area is elevated by the brass stand, embellished with skull designs and serves a ceremonial role.
Introduction To The Kapala Set :
The skull cup, known as Kapala in Sanskrit, is fashioned from the oval upper section of a human cranium. It serves as a libation vessel for many Vajrayana deities, mostly wrathful. As a ritual implement, the selection of the right skull is of immense importance for the success of the ritual. In Tibetan Buddhism, the Kapala or Skull Bowl is used ritually in several ways. For example, the Lama may use it as an offering bowl on the altar, filled with wine or blood as a gift to the Yidam Deity or all the Deities in the Mandala. Through the force of the practice of tantric visualizations based on deep philosophical study and meditation, a sort of transubstantiation will occur, and the wine or blood will be transformed into the Wisdom Nectar, a liquid form of the Enlightened Mind of the Deity or all of the Deities in the Celestial Palace of the Mandala.
