The sound of the bell evacuates negative energy, to help drive out negative energy / evil spirits from the place of worship. Bells are believed to frighten away evil spirits or used to cast or remove spells.

They are also instrumental in channeling positive energy to create a harmonious environment. Such bells can also be hanged at home Altar and the ringing of bells removes negative energy and brings positive energy at home.

Our home is not just a made of materials for shelter and comfort. It is an area filled with infinite vibrating endlessly transforming energy fields.

A temple bell is made of various metals including cadmium, lead, copper, zinc, nickel, chromium, and manganese which produce a distinct sound. The moment you ring that bell, the bell produces a sharp but lasting sound that lasts for a minimum of seven seconds in echo mode good enough to touch your seven healing centers or chakras in your body.

Ringing the Temple Bell will activate the Hearing Sense. People who are visiting the temple should and ring the bell when entering the temple. The bell is made in such a way that when they produce a sound it creates a unity in the Left and Right parts of our brains.

The moment we ring the bell, it produces a sharp and enduring sound that lasts for a minimum of 7 seconds in echo mode. The duration of the echo is good enough to activate all the seven healing centers in our body. This results in emptying our brain from all negative thoughts. This bell sound is also absorbed by the idol and vibrated within the Garbhagriha (inner sanctum) for a certain period of time.
