The prayer bell is used to call the presence of the Buddha. Before chanting one rings the bell to clear the mind of worldly matters. The dorje represents the thunderbolt of enlightenment, that abrupt change in human consciousness which is the pivotal episode in the lives of mystics and saints. When used in ritual, the dorje is paired with the bell. It represents the masculine principle and is held in the right hand, the bell, held in the left hand, represents the female principle. The dorje can be used for visualization or evocation of deities; ringing the bell can be used to request protection or other actions from a deity, or it can represent the teaching of dharma, and can also be a sound offering. In ritual the bell is paired with the vajra. The vajra represents the compassion of the Buddha, the masculine principle; and the bell represents wisdom, the female principle. To achieve enlightenment, those two principles must be combined. The bell is visualized as the Buddha's body, the vajra is visualized as his mind, and the sound of the bell is visualized as Buddha's speech in teaching of the dharma. View more great items
