About Blowing Shankh (Bajane Shankh)
A Blowing Shankh, also known as Bajane Shankh or Conch Shell, is a sacred Hindu ritual instrument traditionally blown during puja, aarti, havan, and temple worship. It holds immense spiritual significance and is believed to purify the surroundings, invoke positive energy, and create a divine atmosphere.
Blowing the shankh produces a powerful, resonant sound that symbolizes Om (ॐ)—the primordial cosmic vibration. In Hindu scriptures, the shankh is associated with Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi, representing purity, prosperity, and protection. It is commonly used in daily mandir rituals, festivals, and auspicious occasions.
Crafted from a natural conch shell, each blowing shankh is unique in shape and tone. When blown correctly, it emits a clear and auspicious sound, making it ideal for home temples, ashrams, and spiritual ceremonies. The shankh is easy to maintain and should be kept clean and respected as a sacred object.
