The Age of Deterioration (Kal-yuga)



Whatever result was obtained in Sat-yuga by meditating on Vishnu, in Treta-yuga by performing sacrifices, and in Dvāpara-yuga by serving the Lord's lotus feet can be obtained in Kali-yuga simply by chanting the Hare Krsna mahā-mantra

Cosmic Bells - "Aum" Bells





Tibetan bells are a specialty which has a sweet sound echoing the music that touches the soul. Local residents of McLeodganj are staunch believers of Feng Shui and promote the same by selling articles which fetch fame, money, and luck according to their belief system.


Playing the bells usually causes an immediate centering effect. The tones set up a "frequency following response" that creates a balancing left/right brain synchronization. Meditating on the subtle sounds of the Tibetan singing bells tunes one in to the universal sound within and without.
The Rates of these bells are:
Rs.400.00 each bell (small size)
Rs.500.00 each bell (Medium size)
Rs.650.00 each bell (Big size)
Rs.1100.00 (large size)
+ Pack/forwding extra as actual
