Tibetan Damaru Drum in Yaounde Shrine

by Emmanuel Jennings

Sunlight streams through the open doorway of a shrine, illuminating a Tibetan damaru ritual drum resting on a polished wooden altar. The instrument features a double-headed drumhead stretched over a wooden frame, with two small clappers hanging from leather straps on either side. Behind the drum, rows of paper lanterns in deep reds and golds line the walls, their surfaces reflecting the high-altitude light. Humid air hangs heavy after the monsoon rain, visible as a slight haze softening the distant lantern edges. The symmetrical arrangement places the drum perfectly centered, flanked by identical rows of hanging lights. one drop of moisture rests on the rim of the left drumhead, catching the light before sliding down the dark wood grain.
