About this talk. In this five-minute teaching from Taiwan, Lama Zopa Rinpoche explains the practice and benefits of offering bell sound to Buddhas, Dharma, and sacred representations throughout all universes. He begins with an immediate, tangible benefit: by offering bell sound, one’s voice becomes naturally enchanting and attracts people to listen. But the deeper significance lies in how the sound reaches all sentient beings—those in hell realms, animals, and humans alike—allowing them to hear it as a manifestation of emptiness. Through this recognition, all beings awaken to their fundamental nature, achieve liberation from suffering, and attain enlightenment in whatever form serves them best. A brief, focused teaching on the power of this simple acoustic practice.
