In Hinduism
The damaru is very common throughout the
Indian subcontinent
. The damaru is known as a power drum, and when played, it is believed to generate spiritual energy. It is associated with the
Hindu
deity
Shiva
. It is believed that Sanskrit language was recognized by the drumbeats of the damaru (see
Shiva Sutra
for the sounds), and His performance of the cosmic dance of
tandava
. The damaru is used by itinerant musicians of all stripes, due to its small portable size.
In Tibetan Buddhism
In the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, the damaru is part of a collection of sacred implements and musical instrument was adopted from the tantric practices of ancient India. These reached the Land of Snows from the 8th to 12th century, persisting in Tibet as the practice of
Vajrayana
flourished there, even as it vanished in the subcontinent of India.
