An etched singing bowl handcrafted by 4th and 5th generation singing bowl artisans in the Kathmandu Valley exclusively for DharmaShop. Designed by the DharmaShop team with our friend Brook, a local Michigan tattoo artist, this bowl features a detailed Citipati skeleton dance design.

The Citipati skeletons are a pair of lovers whose dance represents the liberation and enlightenment that comes from accepting our impermanence. Citipati is a protective deity shown in the form of a skeleton who are fierce protectors of the dharma. They serve as a symbol of death and rebirth, and a reminder of the impermanence of life.
