Embrace Tranquility with Our Mindfulness Meditation Charm Kappa
This Japanese lucky charm has a special bell! Suikinrei comes from “Sui-kin-kutsu,” found in Japanese gardens, where water dripping into a pot creates a koto-like melody. Koto is a traditional Japanese stringed instrument. Originally, Shinto shrines used to use in Shinto rituals for purification; combining water droplets with bells is thought to ward off evil and bring good fortune.
Why is the sound beautiful?
Sui-kin-rei has grooves inside instead of traditional bell holes, producing a melodious “sharan sharan” sound as a ball moves along them.
-The droplet-shaped version enhances tranquillity and sensitivity, symbolising abundance. It suits your mindfulness meditation, too.
-Spiritual effects include stress reduction, aiding meditation and concentration, improving sleep quality, and facilitating profound spiritual experiences.
What is Kappa?
In Japanese folklore, a “Kappa” is a water sprite known for its mischievous and sometimes malevolent nature. These creatures are believed to dwell in rivers and ponds, primarily in rural areas of Japan. Kappas have distinct features like scaly skin, webbed hands and feet, and a water-filled dish on their heads, the source of their strength.
They have a fondness for cucumbers and enjoy playing pranks on humans, including sumo wrestling. Despite their mischievousness, Kappas are polite and can be disarmed if one bows back, causing them to spill their headwater.
Kappas are a captivating part of Japanese folklore, inspiring literature, film, and anime. While they are mythical and not part of mainstream religious beliefs, they are a cherished part of Japan’s cultural heritage. Why not try mindfulness meditation with Kappa?
