Description
Himalayan Buddhist Bhumba
The Himalayan Buddhist Bhumba is made up of silver and plated with gold. It has a dragon holder and the top is studded with turquoise. The lid is finely chained with the bhumba. It is exquisitely hand-carved and engraved to give it a traditional look.
The Bhumba, or Ritual Vase, is an important ceremonial item used for holding holy water that has been blessed by the Guru. The holy water is believed to remove negativity and to chase away evil spirits, and it is sprinkled or poured to purify people, places, or objects. Bhumba’s are widely used by Gurus in many types of ceremonies, from elaborate purification rituals for new houses, monuments, and holy sites, to simple blessings for disciples meant to purify and protect them from harmful forces.
Bhumba can also be used by practitioners to make water offerings; in such cases, the water is regarded as pure nectar.
