ESSENCE

I am the stone that forms in darkness and emerges wearing royalty. When you've been scattered across obligations, when your inner vision has gone foggy, when you're tired of pretending the hard stuff isn't there—I hold space. I don't force anything open. I create conditions. I let the sound move through you until you can see clearly again. This bowl carries the quiet authority of transformation that happens slowly, honestly, in its own time.

THE ELEMENT

Purpurite is a manganese iron phosphate mineral, born through oxidation deep within granite pegmatites. It forms when primary minerals like lithiophilite meet air and time—a slow chemical transformation that produces its distinctive reddish-purple to violet hues. First identified in 1905 in North Carolina pegmatites, purpurite takes its name from the Latin purpura, honoring the royal color it wears. Primary sources include Namibia, Australia, Portugal, and the United States.

This mineral carries an earthy, honest presence. Its luster stays dull rather than flashy, its formations irregular and unpolished until someone recognizes their quiet beauty. When purpurite is infused into quartz crystal through Divine Bowls' proprietary process, its molecular structure integrates at the point of formation—not as a surface coating, but as part of what vibrates. The mineral's grounding signature weaves into every frequency the bowl produces, creating resonance patterns unique to this instrument.

In contemporary wellness practices, purpurite has gained recognition for supporting the third eye and crown chakras—those seats of vision and spiritual connection. People reach for it when mental fog has overstayed its welcome, when intuition needs reclaiming without fantasy, when boundaries need setting in ways that feel like self-respect rather than walls. It's the stone for those ready to stop spiritual bypassing and start spiritual being. When you work with purpurite, you're invited into clarity that comes after honest acknowledgment—the kind of seeing that emerges when you stop pretending the fog isn't there.

THE FREQUENCY

This bowl sounds in B at 254 Hz, resonating with the crown chakra in the Western diatonic system. The B frequency carries the energetic quality of spirituality, connection, and unity—the threshold where individual self meets something larger. Despite being a crown chakra note, this third-octave tone vibrates through the lower body: pelvis, hips, sitting bones, and your foundational connection to earth.

This creates a distinctive experience. Crown consciousness meeting grounded embodiment. When purpurite's honest, transformation-literate energy meets this frequency, people often describe feeling spiritually open yet physically anchored—transcendence that doesn't float away but settles into the bones. The combination supports those who want depth without disconnection, vision without losing their footing.

THE TUNING

This bowl resonates at 254 Hz. Using A=440 as reference, it plays B+43 cents. Using A=432 as reference, this same frequency is C-20 cents.

This bowl is categorized as Uplift Tuning because its frequency falls above the C=528 range, producing a brighter, more energizing quality. These frequencies have an awakening character—sounds that enliven rather than sedate. For purpurite's work of clearing mental fog and reclaiming clarity, this uplift quality serves beautifully. The brightness cuts through stagnation while the element's grounding nature keeps the experience anchored. Valued for stimulating movement, enhancing mental clarity, and bringing fresh energy to states that have become stuck.

(For fine adjustment, adding water to the bowl lowers the pitch slightly—a technique some use to dial in precise intervals when playing with other instruments.)

THE SIZE

At 9 inches, this bowl produces third-octave tones with long sustain—meaning each strike or rim circle continues singing, filling space with sound that builds and lingers. The full, rich volume makes it ideal for group settings, classrooms, yoga studios, or living rooms where sound needs to reach everyone present. It's also substantial enough for team meeting openings or retreat center work, yet portable enough to move between rooms or carry to sessions.

This size allows purpurite's quiet authority to express with presence—not overwhelming, but undeniably there. The third-octave resonance naturally targets the lower body, creating that distinctive crown-meets-ground experience where spiritual opening stays rooted in physical awareness.

WORKING WITH THIS BOWL

Reach for this bowl when you're ready to stop performing. When mental fog has settled in and you need clarity without forcing. When you've been giving so much that your own inner vision has gone blurry. When you want to set boundaries but need them to feel like self-respect, not walls.

Start simply: find a moment when you won't be interrupted. Strike the bowl once and let the sound fill the space. Notice where you feel it in your body—likely your hips, your seat, your connection to whatever you're sitting on. Let the long sustain do its work without trying to make anything happen. You might place the bowl on the floor in front of you during meditation, or strike it to mark the beginning of focused work time. Teachers use bowls like this to signal transitions; executives strike them before stepping into difficult conversations; parents play them when the household energy needs resetting. There's no wrong way to begin.

For deeper work, play the bowl while sitting with what's true—not what you wish were true, not what you're performing for others, but what's actually present. Purpurite doesn't bypass the hard stuff. It holds space while you acknowledge it. Notice what becomes clearer when you stop pretending.

Each Divine Bowls singing bowl includes a pure quartz mallet wrapped in premium silicone for optimal resonance, plus a silicone O-ring for stable playing on hard surfaces. Every bowl is formed in a single seamless vessel from 99.995% pure quartz—no welds, no weak points—built to last lifetimes of honest use.

INVITATION

The bowl that sounds in B and holds purpurite doesn't ask you to be further along than you are. It doesn't care if you've been working with sound for twenty years or if you've never struck a singing bowl in your life. It only asks: are you ready to stop performing clarity and start having it?

This is the instrument for the executive who needs three minutes of honest stillness before the board meeting. For the teacher whose classroom has been chaos and who's tired of pretending louder is the answer. For the parent coming home from work still carrying everyone else's needs, wanting just one clear tone that says you can put it down now. For anyone who's been giving so much that their own inner vision went foggy—and who's finally ready to see clearly again without forcing it.

Purpurite doesn't bypass. It doesn't promise you'll never feel scattered again. It creates conditions. It holds space. It lets the sound move through your hips, your seat, your connection to the ground until something settles and you remember: transformation doesn't have to be loud to be real.
