it's a tibetan singing bowl that I bought in rome, it gives a high that's a bit like weed
it starts with focussing on the bowl, looking in it to your reflection when you're using it(stroking the stick around ot for a sound, best comparable to that trick with your finger and a wineglass but deeper, very relaxing sound, altough some people can't stand it)
after a while I will start noticing that I lost my perception of time, I forget how long I'm already using the bowl, what time it is, what part of the day it is, I just go up into the moment and I also become better at usingcontrolling the bowl
looking at the time doing this I discovered this happens roughly after 20 minutes, but aftere that I never measured the time, I even make sure there's no clock to be seen from the position where I'm sitting when using the bowl
and it makes me very inspirationfull, feeling good, relaxed, awake and clear, more imagination too
and very peacefull
yeah I really like it, we stumbled upon a tibetshop in rome and I was instantly atracted to the beautifull sound, they had a table full of themVaporEyeSore said:djonkoman said:a still life of what got me into this awesome high(I only post pics here after I had some high inspiration)

These bowls are suposed to be made out of 7,11,13and sometimes more different types of metal. It is considered that eating from them when you are sickuses the magical properties of the metal to heal as well as being used in meditation and ceremony. Good to see someone using it here for deep meditation
this is quite special not all bowls are like that. Different bowl different metals different frequency different effect. The bowl must have a frequency that is really good for you. To find this on a first buy is lucky I know people who have searched a lot of far away places to find a bowl like that and still not found it.djonkoman said:yeah I really like it, we stumbled upon a tibetshop in rome and I was instantly atracted to the beautifull sound, they had a table full of themVaporEyeSore said:djonkoman said:a still life of what got me into this awesome high(I only post pics here after I had some high inspiration)

I came back that afternoon with 2 friends, we spend more then an hour there playing the bowls, ne of the shopkeepers gave me some instructions on the technique etc, and after I bought mine we spend some more time talking to the shopkeepers
and during the walk back to the hotel I felt really stoned
I just wonder why these bowls are not more widely known, to me the effect is at least as strong as weed, also similar effect as weed(wich is also why it combines that well)
maybe it's even as strong as alcohol, but that's hard to compare since it are such different effects
but I've never heard anybody argue to make meditation illegal, or that you would get addicted to it while there are plenty of uninformed people saying those things about weed
and I'm not the only one to get a strong effect from it, one of my friens even got red eyes from the singing bowl
and when I used it in our room woth 2 other friends for 20-30 minutes and went to the piazza de navone afterwards, other friends wouldn't believe we were sober
I also had a bottle woth water woth me wich was used for sambucca a few days earlier, and apparantly it still smelled like it
so a friend asked me if he could have some of my 'water'
the look on his face when he took a sip and he realized it was just water... priceless
