They bear the Tibetan mantra \u003cstrong\u003eOm Mani Padme Hum\u003c\/strong\u003e (ཨོཾ་མ་ཎི་པདྨེ་ཧཱུྃ) as an elevated engraving around the dome – the six syllables of the compassion mantra, significantly larger and more deeply impressed than on the 6 cm variant. The dome is adorned with a lotus blossom motif, the inside smooth and deeply curved. The leather strap is black.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhat immediately distinguishes these cymbals from the others is their patina: the brass has taken on a warm, dark-golden hue – not a bright, polished-new, but a material that knows time and touch. This color results from natural oxidation and is not a flaw, but character. At 280 grams, these cymbals are heavier and fuller in sound than the 6 cm mantra variant – the sustain is longer, deeper, more meditative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOm Mani Padme Hum – the mantra of compassion\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOm Mani Padme Hum is the most famous mantra in Tibetan Buddhism – the mantra of Avalokiteshvara, the Bodhisattva of compassion. The six syllables represent the purification of the six realms of existence and the cultivation of compassion, wisdom, and inner liberation. In Tibet, one encounters this mantra everywhere: on prayer flags, Mani stones, prayer wheels – and, indeed, on cymbals. When the cymbals are struck, the sound becomes the carrier of the mantra.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e6 cm vs. 7 cm Mantra Cymbals – what's the difference?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBoth variants carry the same mantra – the difference lies in size, weight, sound, and character. The \u003cstrong\u003e6 cm mantra cymbals\u003c\/strong\u003e are brighter and fresher in appearance, lighter in weight. The \u003cstrong\u003e7 cm mantra cymbals\u003c\/strong\u003e are darker, heavier, with a deeper, longer sustain and a patina that suggests long use. Those seeking a warm, grounding sound with a strong visual presence should opt for the 7 cm variant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eApplication – how it works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHold the leather strap in one hand, both cymbals hanging freely downwards.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eGently strike the edges of the two cymbals against each other – not the flat sides, but the edges.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eImmediately release and let the sound resonate – with 7 cm, the sustain can last 25–35 seconds.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eFor a softer sound, strike at an angle; for a clearer, fuller tone, strike edge to edge directly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe patina is part of the character of these cymbals – it does not need to be polished.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRemove dust from the elevated engraving with a soft cloth or fine brush.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eDo not use aggressive cleaning agents; keep the leather strap dry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr class=\"hv-divider\"\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCome by Kramgasse 63 in Bern – I'll play both mantra variants for you so you can hear the sound difference directly.
