* Ghanti is an Indian bell used in Hindu rituals. * The same term is also used to describeBuddhist bells. * A clapper is attached to the inside and the bell makes a high-pitched sound when rung. * The top of the bell handle is usually adorned with a brass figure. * Because the ghanti is believed to chase away asuras and summon the Devas (Gods) , it is used in a lot of Hindu rituals such as puja. * Generally the ghanti is held in the left hand during worship and rung continually while the various items are offered with the right hand.
