Martin Bläse’s gongs are more than instruments—they are one-of-a-kind titanium sculptures that merge sound and vision into a transformative experience. Crafted with rare metals and cosmic precision, each gong is a unique work of art designed to support deep sound healing, immersive gong baths, and soulful gong meditation.
My First Encounter: A Gong That Changed Everything
The first time I played a Martin Bläse gong was during a gong training session with Martha Collard. I still remember the moment—the gong’s deep, resonant tones seemed to open a portal to another space. The sound it produced was nothing short of magical, enveloping the room in healing waves. When played with a flumie, the sound became even more ethereal—like waves of vibration gliding through space. Back home, I found myself unable to stop thinking about it. That experience stayed with me, and I knew I had to bring one into my own practice.
Infusing Personal Energy into the Gong’s Creation
With Martha’s help, I was able to share my heartfelt intention with Martin prior to the creation of the Ananda Gong. This was more than a purchase—it was a sacred collaboration between the gong maker and me.
Before production began, I wrote a heartfelt note, expressing my desire to infuse the gong with positive energy, love, and blissful moments—a vibration I hoped would ripple outward to everyone who hears it. Martin’s process honors this kind of energetic exchange, allowing each gong to carry a personal resonance that goes far beyond sound.
Why Martin Bläse’s Gongs Are So Special
Martin Bläse’s gongs stand apart for their craftsmanship, intention, and healing power.
Here’s why:
1. Planetary Tuning with Astronomical Precision
Each gong is tuned using the Cosmic Octave system, aligning its frequency with planetary movements. These tones are believed to harmonize with our bodies and minds on a subtle vibrational level—perfect for sound healing, gong meditation, and spiritual alignment.
2. Hand-Forged from Rare Metals
Martin uses materials like titanium, tantalum, bronze, and alpaca, each chosen for its unique acoustic and visual properties. Titanium, in particular, produces crystalline, shimmering tones and reveals stunning rainbow hues when heat-treated.
3. Each Gong Is a One-of-a-Kind Sculpture
No two gongs are alike. Each is shaped, tuned, and colored individually.
4. Deeply Resonant for Healing & Ritual
Bläse’s gongs are beloved by sound healers, yoga teachers, and therapists for their ability to:
Induce deep meditative states
Harmonize energy fields
Create immersive gong baths
Support emotional release and spiritual connection
5. Made with Intention, Not Mass Production
Each gong is made to order, with no stockpile. This slow, intentional process ensures that every piece is energetically aligned and acoustically refined. In my case, it took three months from placing the order to receiving the gong.
The Ananda Gong: A Gong of Bliss
The Ananda Gong is a breathtaking titanium sculpture of sound and vision. Its blue coloration is offset by heat marks that create a radiant rainbow effect. Named after Ananda, one of the Buddha’s ten disciples known for his deep compassion, exceptional memory, and unwavering devotion, this gong carries the energy of wisdom and compassion.
When I play the Ananda Gong, I feel a deep sense of balance, calm, and bliss. It’s more than a sound—it’s a space. A space where mindfulness flows, where healing begins, and where love is shared.
Final Reflections
Martin Bläse’s gongs are not just tools—they are companions on your healing journey. Whether you’re leading a gong bath, guiding a gong meditation, or simply seeking a deeper connection to sound, these gongs offer a portal to presence, peace, and transformation.
I look forward to practicing with you through the radiant tones of my Ananda Gong—sharing moments of bliss, cultivating mindful presence, and journeying together into a space of balance, calm, and deep inner peace. May each vibration guide us closer to harmony, healing, and connection.
