What is the name of the big and long trumpet played in Tibetan Buddhism?

Tongqin, also translated as Dafa, may be the reason why Tongqin was used in religious activities and played by monks in temples. ?

The scale has only three notes, which is very primitive. Rough and vigorous timbre is very unique, which is used to express the sacrosanct majesty of religion.

Tongqin's "bronze" refers to Tibetan symbols or horns, meaning "big", and "Tongqin" means large. It is one of the two main representative melodic instruments in Tibetan Buddhism, and it is also one of the main musical instruments of Tibetan Buddhist temple bands. ?

Tongqin is one of the unique brass instruments of Tibetan Buddhism, which is mainly used for grand celebrations or meetings with subjects. According to Tibetan history books and some early murals, as early as the tenth century, the tongqin appeared in Tibet.

Tongqin is generally made of red copper, brass and white copper, which are called "mulberry copper", "hot copper" and "winter copper" in turn. Some exquisite temples are also made of silver and plated with gold decorative patterns, which are called "Weitong". Generally, the above names are used when emphasizing the materials made of bronze Qin, but the title of bronze Qin is still used at ordinary times.

Tongqin has a grand voice and a deep and dignified tone, which seems to be invincible. The volume is huge, and the volume, volume and bass are the first in the world.

Extended data:

Tibetan Buddhism is not inherited by Hinayana Buddhism. It is said that all ministries and scriptures have a certain influence on the formation of Tibetan Buddhism, but as far as Buddhist practice methods and precepts are concerned, there is no direct and inevitable connection between them. Judging from the distinction between Mahayana Buddhism, Tibetan Buddhism and Mahayana Buddhism are obviously relative.

The spread of Tibetan Buddhism is concentrated in China's major Tibetan-inhabited areas (Tibet, Qinghai, Sichuan, Gansu and Yunnan), Mongolia, Nepal and Bhutan, India's Himachal Pradesh, Ladakh and Dharamsala, and Russia's kalmyk, Tuva and Buryat. In modern times, Tibetan Buddhism gradually spread to all parts of the world.

According to Tibetan history books and some early murals, as early as the tenth century A.D., tongqin appeared in Tibet. The bronze harp is made of copper, copper, brass and silver respectively. The bronze statue is divided into three sections: the upper section, the middle section and the lower section. The upper two paragraphs are placed on the thickest paragraph below, which is elongated when playing, placed on a wooden copper frame when playing in a fixed occasion, and carried on people's shoulders when marching or playing in a temporary occasion.
