Flute

There’s a myth that the sound of the flute is derived from the singing of Galbinga (Kinnara), a mythical half-human and half-bird creature of heaven, and that the flute imitates its melodies. It’s blown with various techniques, producing different sounds depending on the religious mantra praying and tantric rituals, including the melody of Lama Chodpa, Sembrem, blowing at the end of GulDogpa, blowing on janden, and others.
