About our Prayer Wheel
This Buddhist Blessing Prayer Wheel measures 21.5 cm in height, 19 cm in width, and weighs 0.49 kg. This prayer wheel, handcrafted from copper, brass, and white metal and set in a finely carved wooden frame, serves as both a spiritual artifact and a decorative treasure. The classic design and intricate patterns lend it a timeless charm, making it an ideal choice for altars, meditation spaces, or as a thoughtful gift.
The wheel has holy inscriptions of the powerful chant "Om Mani Padme Hum," accompanied by rich Buddhist artwork that exudes blessings and inner peace. When spun clockwise, it is thought to release compassion and spiritual merit, purging negativity and bringing serenity. This spiritual sculpture is more than just visually appealing; it serves as a meditation tool and a poignant reminder of the profound core of Tibetan Buddhist philosophy.
Introduction to Prayer Wheel
A prayer wheel is cylindrical on a spindle and is 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 verbally reciting the mantra. 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 improves siddhis (spiritual powers such as clairvoyance, precognition, etc.). 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. This is usually among Tibetans after finishing any Buddhist practice, including the prayer wheel exercise.
