beautiful photos today, @slowwalker, of the Bell Tower in Soo Deck Sa Temple.

The four Buddhist instruments in the tower are fascinating for their purpose and significance

The sound of each instrument has a function relating to various beings within their realm.

The idea generally was that the sound of the various instruments would spread Buddha's teachings throughout the whole world, even to the animal kingdom.

I found that he brahma bell apparently was sounded in order to release beings in hell from their sufferings - a sobering thought.

This was an interesting tour of a bell tower, my friend,and your photos helped show its beauty and significance.
