About our Prayer Wheel:

The Brass and Copper Prayer Wheel is a revered emblem of attention and spiritual devotion in Tibetan Buddhism. This gorgeous sculpture, measuring 16.5cm in height, 8.5cm in width, and weighing 0.19kg, features a brass base and a copper body, giving it a warm, ancient tone. The wheel is embellished with embossed Tibetan mantras, most notably "Om Mani Padme Hum," which represents compassion and purification. Each turn of the wheel is thought to send innumerable prayers into the universe, promoting inner peace and harmony while also blessing the environment with beneficial energy.

The intricate craftsmanship exemplifies the eternal artistry of Himalayan metallurgy. The prayer wheel's bold, raised inscriptions and copper texture give it a rich, spiritual presence, while the brass cap and base symbolize enlightenment and stability. The contrast between warm copper and polished brass adds to its spiritual appeal, making it more than just a meditation tool but also a stunning depiction of Buddhist devotion. Designed to spin smoothly, the wheel represents the never-ending cycle of life and karma, reminding practitioners of mindfulness and compassion at every turn.

This Tibetan Mantra Prayer Wheel is both decorative and religious, making it ideal for meditation rooms, home altars, or as a thoughtful spiritual gift. It helps you focus on your meditation practice while also sending heavenly energy and blessings into your environment. Whether you are a Buddhist practitioner, a collector of spiritual art, or someone looking for peace, this handcrafted prayer wheel is a beautiful symbol of enlightenment and compassion.

Introduction to Prayer Wheel

A prayer wheel is a cylindrical wheel mounted on a spindle and used in Tibetan Buddhism. It is typically inscribed with the mantra "Om Mani Padme Hum" and rotated by hand as a form of spiritual practice and to accumulate merit. Spinning the wheel is believed to have the same spiritual benefits as reciting the mantra verbally. The use of prayer wheels is widespread in Tibetan Buddhism and has spread to other cultures.

How does the Buddhist Prayer Wheel benefit us?

The benefits associated with rotating the wheel are numerous. It promotes knowledge, compassion, and bodhicitta in the practitioner, and enhances siddhis (spiritual powers, such as clairvoyance and precognition). The practitioner can repeat the mantra as often as possible while the wheel is rolling, maintaining a calm, meditative attitude. A Tibetan Buddhist tradition holds that after a practice session, one should dedicate any acquired merits to the benefit of all sentient beings. Then three times Om Ah Hum. Tibetans usually do this after completing any Buddhist practice, including the prayer wheel exercise.
