In time of solace, what do you do? I would normally pick-up my one mala (108 beads) of chanting beads (made from amber) and start reciting mantras. I would also use my mallet (the wooden rod) knock on my bronze alms bowl (some called it singing bowl), engraved with Six Paramitas Mantra, i.e. OM MANI PADME HUM ...the sound of echoing bronze is crisp, clear, energizing, space purifying and bring calms to disturbed emotion...of course, it is not only in time of solace that I chant but also other time as part of my Buddhist ritual. OM AMI DEWA SAY, may all be blessed with peace, happiness and find the path towards enlightenment.
