The Ghanta (Sanskrit) Dril Bu (Tibetian) of PEACE 和平鐘聲 ( x3)

• From the valleys echoed the ringing sound of the bells, which is the calling from the inner prayers of the Buddhas,
• Calling out to all children whom had left home, reminding them to return back to the embracement of their home.
• Letting go all of their egos and prides, putting down all off their strife and un-restfulness ,
• Let the sound of peace from the bells; eliminate all their confusions and panics,
• From the valleys echoed the ringing sound of the bells, which is the calling from the inner prayers of the Buddhas,
• Calling out to all children whom had left home, calling them to return back to the embracement of their home.
• Letting go all of their egos and prides, putting down all of their strife and un-restfulness,
• Let the sound of peace from the bells, heals all the tiredness of the body,
• Let the sound of peace from the bells; lead all beings to return home to the embracement of the land of the ultimate bliss.

The Bell as such (Ghaṇṭa in Sanskrit and Dril-bu in Tibetan) is not listed among these metaphors of Dharma in the Mahāyāna Sūtras we have consulted. Bells, in the plural, appear there rather as a meritorious offering which came to form a permanent fixture of the Buddhist reliquaries called Stūpas. These bells, probably rather small ones equipped with cloth hangings attached to their clappers that made them ring when the wind blew, were evidently hung in strings attached to Stūpas.

Even without being explicitly identified with the Dharmas (scriptural or phenomenal) in the Mahāyāna sūtras as far as we know at present,the brief explanations of the symbolisms of the Bell in its entirety and in its parts all identify the Bell as the Transcendent Insight Sūtra, as well as the Voidness of all phenomena which is the main message of that Sūtra.

The head of Transcendent Insight even looks out at us from the center of the Bell’s handle. Tsong-kha-pa, in his most famous work on the stages of the tantric Path, directly states, “The Bell’s sound symbolizes the proclamation of the masses of Dharma.”

And Dragpa Gyeltsen says on the symbolism of the Bell in its entirety: “Its empty interior means Voidness, the main point of the Transcendent Insight [Sūtra]. The center [of the Bell] is the reality of Full Knowledge of awareness. Its sound indicates Voidness.”
