Product Description
A kangling, literally translated as a "leg flute", is a trumpet or horn carved from a real human femur and used in Tibetan Buddhism rituals. Designed to remind us of our transient physical existence, the kangling produces a wailing sound, meant to create a mystical atmosphere during tantric rituals. It is played as a gesture of fearlessness and as a way of cutting off the ego.
