Re: MELONG GIFT
The melong has a spectrum of use from the symbolic to the shamanic. I think it is fine to buy a melong for someone for any of those uses, as long as you know how to perform that function.

MELONG GIFT
Is it kosher to give a Melong (NEW) as a gift (to wear for protection) to somebody (my son)...whom is not a Dzogchen practitioner (yet) ?
It's NOT kosher to buy one for yourself... (right ?)
I sent for one....it's coming from Italy !!!!
Thank you
