We recently made some very huge purchases from our overseas suppliers so we could pass on those discounts to you. The best prices in the country--while STILL having the TOP and not second or even (shudders) lower quality! We guarantee it, because that is who WE are and what WE do, so if you are looking for a beginner meditation bowl, a gift, are a practitioner looking for Healing Grade bowls or a performing/recording musician we have something for you.
A ton (a couple tons actually, whew!) of new items, we are working diligently to post on the website as soon as possible, while overhauling the entire site in general--so keep coming back (as well as excuse us for the sections not yet finished, Thanks!)
There will also be a slew of price reductions on some of our older bowls as inventory is switched around. Watch close for them.
In the meanwhile, check out our brand new TINGSHA BELLS PAGE, (new sizes as well as tingsha cases,) our MODERN BOWLS PAGE (where you are going to find some really incredible deals from single bowls to entire sets, like a SET OF 7 'SILVER' BOWLS FOR $100.00, and some HAND HAMMERED TRADITIONAL DESIGN ETCHED SETS, some up to 40% off,) as well as our ACCESSORIES PAGE (new bowl Pillows and Ring Cushions as well as wooden mallets of different woods and new cotton and Red Cloth beaters. Again, discounts are had for our new MALLET & BEATER SET COLLECTIONS.)



Plenty more as well, some wonderful antiques including more LINGHAM BOWLS which will be available soon on our RARE & UNIQUE BOWL PAGES.
And changes will continue to come, everything from new images, new look, photo albums of our trips to Nepal & India and more.
Thank you!
We've just finished three new SINGING BOWL VIDEOS for the website!
A little note, YouTube is having a little site difficulty, so if one of our older videos says "This video is no longer available" it is one of their glitches. Hopefully to be corrected in a few days. Till then, you need to open the link and add at the end of the URL:
&fmt=18
This will have them up and running again.
Cheers!

We have just finished adding some Tibetan incense to our ACCESSORIES PAGE for you to order here through our website.
All natural, all handmade, these blends are used for meditation, space purification as well as ritual / devotional use.


Here is a sample description from one of the bundle packages:
We also have some NEPALI DHOOP (Incense)
Aromatic Nepali Dhoop, Incense - Very high quality, hand-made in Nepal.
"Perfectly safe for the inhalation and the environments as well."
Natural essential oil, flowers, leaves, fruits, peels, grasses, wood, bark, resins, roots, spices. Aromatic herbs using only natural binders, these incense are perfect/made especially for Aromatherapy. A 'joss' type, without a wooden stick, they are pure incense. Because of the quality and lack of burning wood, these blends have been acceptable to many people suffering from allergies and hay fever, people who cannot usually burn incense.
Approximately 19 sticks, 19 cm long per bundle, (aprox. 7-1/2 inches) widths vary depending on the blend.
Here are some sample package informations:
FRANKINCENSE
: A haunting fragrance, woody, spicy with a hint of lemon. Relaxing, uplifting, calming and mildly antiseptic. Frankincense means 'real Incense'. it used to be burnt as an offering to the gods and used as an aid to meditation, a tradition still in practice in some religions. Slows down breathing producing feelings of calmness. This tends to bring about elevating and soothing effects on the mind. Particularly helpful in cleaning the lungs, has excellent effect on respiration, eases shortness of breath and useful to Asthma sufferers.GERANIUM: Sweet and heavy, a little like rose with minty overtones. Once regarded as a great healing plant and often used as a remedy for wounds, tumors, choleras and fractures. To the nervous system, quells anxiety and depression and uplifts the spirits. Puts mind back into balance. Perfect to put you in a good mood, gives you energy or relax you totally.

Also added are HEM INCENSE from India. Fragrant, playful, simply wonderful to help brighten your daily world and work spaces. With 33 different fragrances there is something for everybody! And since they are available through a 'drop down menu' on the site, here is the complete list:

Beyond that, we are currently dealing with a real scoundrel at the YouTube site.
This person is grabbing Emile's singing bowl videos, changing the titles, digitally altering them to remove Emile's and the Temple Sounds names, fact that it is copyrighted material, our website and everything else connected with us and plastering his own website URL over the whole thing, claiming it as his own in order to sell singing bowls and the like from his website. We have been able to have him banned once, yet he just comes back the next day with a new username and re-uploads the videos. (We are not the only one he is doing it to either.) If you come across them or have found your own videos have been hijacked, please contact YouTube (or us if it is one of ours). Thank you.
NEW BOWL EXTRAS
New WOODEN MALLETS and COTTON BEATERS and Bowl PILLOWS & RINGS have just been added, our entire ACCESSORIES PAGE updated and revamped. More items on the way though since we've just gotten in over twelve more types of Tibetan-style INCENSE used for meditation, ceremonies, purification and ritual purposes. All hand-made of natural ingredients, watched for these further additions soon.

SHIPPING RATES
Just a note the US Postal Service has just raised their rates again, yet as of this time we have only raised the second lowest shipping rate we have by $1.00. ($8.95 to $9.95 - This to cover their Flat Rate Postage only.)
As you know we are still reconstructing the website here (about to add an INCENSE as well as WHOLESALE page along with the rest,) so please disregard the old Shipping & Handling charts that show up on random pages. Thank you.
Just managed to post some additional singing bowls here on the site.
Remember, we are overhauling the site from beginning to end so please bear with us the occasional glitches as we tear it all down and replace/improve. Images as well as sound files are being replaced with higher quality versions so even older items will be showcased truer to form.
Another change is that we have deleated our Album of Past Events Page and moved all images in new for to our CURRENT EVENTS PAGE.
All for now; wishing everyone a good weekend,
Melissa & Emile
Visitors over the next two weeks are going to notice a lot of changes here as we overhaul and update our entire site, where we are finally getting more of our bowls up (a rather lot of them) as well as new videos; videos of showcase bowls (visual and sound samples of the bowls themselves being played); a page devoted to our meditation and playing technique Videos; the creation of a very, very special Museum Grade Bowl Page as well as a section for our WHOLESALE clients direct for both bowls and CDs.
Till then, please be patient as we shift and delete in preparation of these exciting editions.

Thank you,
Emile & Melissa
