{"product_id":"grounding-series-singing-bowl-5000g","title":"Grounding Series Singing Bowl 5000 g — Hand-Forged Bronze Bowl","description":"\u003cp\u003eFive kilograms of bronze, forged by hand in India, and large enough that you can stand inside it. That is not a figure of speech — the Grounding Series is built at a scale where the vibration travels up through the feet rather than arriving at the ears.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe alloy is specific to these bowls and it shows in the sustain: strike once and the tone keeps unfolding, low and unhurried, long past the point where a smaller bowl would have gone quiet. For sound therapy and body-awareness work, that long decay is the whole instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#2c3a37\"\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrounding Series singing bowl, 5000 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge enough to stand in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-forged in India by skilled artisans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecial bronze alloy for rich, immersive sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeep tones with long sustain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor meditation, sound therapy and body-awareness work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#2c3a37\"\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet it on a flat, firm floor — not on carpet, and not on a table. The point of a bowl this size is that the floor becomes part of the instrument, and a soft surface cancels most of what you paid for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo play it with someone standing inside, strike the outer wall gently and low, then let it build. Start far quieter than you think necessary; the vibration is felt before it is heard and the first stroke sets the tolerance for the session.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlayed conventionally, strike the rim and circle slowly with a large mallet. The bigger the bowl, the slower the circle — rushing a 5 kg bowl produces a rattle, not a note.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#2c3a37\"\u003eBowl details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;border-bottom:1px solid #d8d2c6;padding:8px\"\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;border-bottom:1px solid #d8d2c6;padding:8px\"\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px\"\u003e5000 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px\"\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px\"\u003eSpecial bronze alloy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px\"\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px\"\u003eHand-forged in India\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px\"\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px\"\u003eLarge enough to stand in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px\"\u003eTone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px\"\u003eDeep, with long sustain\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px\"\u003eTypical use\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:8px\"\u003eMeditation, sound therapy, body awareness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background:linear-gradient(135deg,#000D0B,#40514E);color:#f2efe9;padding:22px;border-radius:10px;margin:26px 0\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#c9a96e;margin-top:0\"\u003e✨ Temple Tip\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom:0\"\u003ePlay this one barefoot on a wooden floor.
