In most temples there are one or more bells. devotee rings the bell as soon as he enters and goes for darshan.. now why bell in a temple.? is it to wake up god?lord never sleeps. is it to inform that you have come?well he he is all knowing that's why he is god. HE welcomes all at all times as he is lord. then why should you ring the bell.?you be informed well about this.The ringing of the bells produces auspicious sounds such as om.Even while arathi we ring the bell..THE sound of the bell can drown all all unwanted or irrelevant noises and other dirty comments of the worshippers, adds concentration and inner peace..There is a verse in sanskrit.------AGAMARTHAM THU DEVANAM GAMANARTHAM THU RAKSHASAM, DEVATHA POOJANARTHAYA GHANTA NATHAM KAROMYAHAM.I ring this bell indicating invocation of divinity in me,so that virtuous force may enter my heart, and with this power of lord let me ring the bell and worship the all-mighty.
