Description [ edit ]
Shang range in size from approximately three to 20 inches in diameter. They are traditionally believed to originate in Zhangzhung and are symbolically similar to the dril bu or ghanta .
Shang are traditionally consecrated and made of sophisticated[clarification needed metallic alloy .
A shang consists of three principal parts: the flat bell part proper; the gankyil , which is the centre piece that holds the knocker; and the knocker or striker proper, which is often made of animal horn.
The shang was believed[by whom? to be useful in receiving information from the Eastern concept of æther , to induce trance or call spirits. The shang is often used in rites in conjunction with the phurba and namkha .
