Damru is a small two-headed drum, used in Hinduism and Tibetan Buddhism. In Hinduism, the Damru is known as the instrument of Lord Shiva.
The Damru was first created by Shiva to produce spiritual sounds by which this whole universe has been created and regulated.
In Tibetan Buddhism, the damaru is used as an instrument in tantric practices. The drum is typically made of Sheesham Wood with green color leather drum heads at both ends.
It is played single handedly. The strikers are typically beads fastened to the ends of cords around the waist of the damaru. As the player waves the drum using a twisting wrist motion, the strikers beat on the drum-head.
The damaru is known as a power drum, and when played, it is believed to generate spiritual energy. It is associated with the Hindu deity Shiva.
