For those who don't know what a "Tilak Mridanga" is, it's a fiberglass and rubber version of the Bengali mridanga used in Hare Krishna temples worldwide. It really is a great idea. The sound is very similar to the traditional Bengali clay mridanga (but louder), and the Tilak Mrdangas are nearly indestructible.
After years of research and development a new fibreglass Mridanga has been produced to solve the supply problems with the Balarama mridangas.
The fibreglass mrdanga was first produced at New Dwarka, ISKCON Los Angeles to solve a big problem with the clay mrdangas from India. The clay mridangas are very fragile. A slight impact will cause them to break. To avoid this problem the fibreglass mrdanga was invented. It was a grand success and now the new and improved fibreglass Mrdanga in the form of the Tilak Mridanga is now available at an amazingly affordable price.
By improving the production methods we have been able to both improve the quality of the mrdangas significantly and at the same time to very dramatically reduce the price.
