Tibetan sacred art has always been meant to accomplish a spiritual goal. The monastery gong is used in meditation to help imagine its own and the illumination of all other beings. The sacred gong of the Tibetan monastery is believed to grant the practitioner direct access to the Buddha. The Tibetan gong is flat, and a round-disc shape made of metal. It is suspended vertically by a cord and is strapped through holes close to the top of the rim.
The gong of the Tibetan monastery with mantras, symbols and enchanting charms would elevate your experience of meditation and prayer. The practitioner may pay it obeisance, offerings, confessions, and prayers of various kinds. This peace-invoking gong from Tibet can be used to mark zazen sessions. These sacred icons are welcome to occupy an important position on a Buddhist altar, liturgy, and the comfort of your home or convent. They become a home for meditation and ritualism there.

How to care for Wood Statues?
Wood is extensively used in sculpting especially in countries like China, Germany, and Japan. One feature that makes the wood extremely suitable for making statues and sculptures is that it is light and can take very fine detail. It is easier for artists to work with wood than with other materials such as metal or stone. Both hardwoods, as well as softwood, are used for making sculptures. Wood is mainly used for indoor sculptures because it is not as durable as stone. Changes in weather cause wooden sculptures to split or be attacked by insects or fungus. The principal woods for making sculptures and statues are cedar, pine, walnut, oak, and mahogany. The most common technique that sculptors use to make sculptures out of wood is carving with a chisel and a mallet. Since wooden statues are prone to damage, fire, and rot, they require proper care and maintenance.
It is extremely important to preserve and protect wooden sculptures with proper care. A little carelessness and negligence can lead to their decay, resulting in losing all their beauty and strength. Therefore, a regular clean-up of the sculptures is a must to prolong their age and to maintain their shine and luster.
