About Our Ritual Item :
This Buddhist Ritual Item Kapala Set is skillfully created from pure silver and stands 15.5 cm tall and 9 cm wide. This ritual cup, weighing 0.794 kg, represents the greatest craftsmanship and spiritual purpose. The Kapala, traditionally associated with tantric rites, is a sacred item in Buddhist practice that represents energy transmutation and connection to deities. The silver material denotes purity, reflecting the profound spiritual meaning that drives its use in rituals. This Kapala set is used extensively in purifying, offering, and spiritual ascension ceremonies.
The Kapala has been decorated with intricate Buddhist artistic design, including a half vajra on top that represents the duality of the divine and the strength of wisdom. The Kapala's distinctive design allows it to be divided into two sections, emphasizing its meaning as a vessel for transformation. The lowest part features a three-sided base, representing the balance of the three jewels: Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha. This object is utilized in tantric ceremonies, where it is thought to participate in the giving of blood or flesh to deities, symbolizing the eradication of ignorance and the transformation of negative energies. Using the Kapala provides practitioners spiritual protection, insight, and cleansing, bringing them to enlightenment.
Introduction To The Kapala Set :
For blood-containing tantric rituals, the kapala set is held by Kali and other manifestations of Shiva Sakti, Mahakala, and other guardian deities, and their Dankinis. Kapala is made of the severed head of a man a cup made of a skull, or a bowl. The skull cup is of two kinds, when it is filled with blood it is called Asrkkapala, and when with flesh it is called Mamsa kapala. It is used in tantric rituals. The deities appeared to partake of the blood or the flesh of the demon carried in these cups.
