Puraka –
Inhalation
Buddha –Awakened One
The name "Rann" comes from the Hindi word ran (??) meaning "salt
marsh". The
Puraka Buddha Rann Inhaler is used to open the nasal and trachea passages,
allowing us to breathe more efficiently.
A little
burlap pouch of herbs that could be the key to that unlocks your breathing.
Singers use
the Puraka Buddha Rann Inhaler to open these air passages in order to
improve air velocity for more powerful vocal octave range and to help
overcome singer’s fatigue.
The Puraka
Buddha Rann Inhaler is a must for any pre meditative preparation and for
any vocal or stage performer. The monks used the Puraka Buddha Rann Inhaler
to improve their inhalation techniques and thus improve the endurance
and ease of their meditative experiences.
A tremendously
important part of the Mun Lhundo Buddhist philosophy is the emphasis it
places on meditation as the way to salvation. The Tibetan Buddhists themselves
have thousands of meditation techniques. Each has a different objective
and different styles suit different types of personality. But from a Buddhist
perspective the ultimate goal of all meditation is to travel beyond the
'I' into the great immensity called Nirvana. However, first and foremost,
prior to engaging in a pure meditative exercise, you must be able to breathe
clearly.
The monks'
special blend of herbs is a safe herbal decongestant and is used in large
quantities within the temples for aromatherapy. Regular deep inhalation
of the Puraka Buddha Rann Inhaler helps reduce inflammation and soothes
respiratory irritation. It is useful for people suffering from reoccurring
sinus problems and is especially good at clearing up acute sinus infections
and nasal congestion due to allergies. |
