Product Description
Superior in grade and best in quality, this
immaculate prayer wheel is assembled with its core pieces made
from solid brass (machined by technology) and its surface adorned
by tedious handcrafting from great artisans. Departing from the
usual traditional pieces, the heavy and solid core pieces that
are machined to high precision enables an extremely smooth spinning
of the wheel around its axis. A spectacular revelation from the
usual pieces, this stunning and eye-catching masterpiece features
the mantra Om Mani Padme Hum skillfully crafted on the outside
of the wheel. Empowering the sensual piece is over 30,000 consecrated
Om Mani Padme Hum mantras contained inside the wheel. The mantras
contained inside the wheel is guaranteed. A prayer wheel follows
you a lifetime, therefore be wise. Always get the best and never
opt for poor quality ones. Buddhists believe that the prayer wheel
radiates peace, kindness, and relief from suffering for all beings.
According to Buddhist teachings, spinning a prayer wheel has many
benefits for you, your family and even the world, too many to
mention here. Briefly, the blessings of the prayer wheel helps
bring happiness to you, your home, and to all beings. It helps
transform your home into a very peaceful, pleasant and holy place.
And it helps to heal sickness and protect from diseases. According
to the Tibetan Buddhist tradition based on the lineage texts regarding
prayer wheels, spinning such a wheel will have much the same meritorious
effect as orally reciting the prayers. The prayer wheel spinning
actually facilitates those illiterate to chant the mantra and
the effect is the same as reading the mantra. The prayer wheel
is used to accumulate wisdom and merit (good karma) and to purify
negativities (bad karma), thus resulting in less sufferings and
a smoother life. Simply touching a prayer wheel is said to bring
great purification to negative karmas and obscurations. This translates
to good luck in the layman's interpretation.
What is a Prayer Wheel?
The concept of the prayer wheel is a physical
manifestation of the phrase "turning the wheel of Dharma," which
describes the way in which the Buddha taught. the prayer wheel originated
from ‘The School of Shakyamuni sutra, volume 3 – pagoda and temple’.
The practitioner most often spins the wheel clockwise, as the direction
in which the mantras are written is that of the movement of the
sun across the sky. On rare occasions, advanced Tantric practitioners
such as Senge Dongma, the Lion-Faced Dakini, spin prayer wheels
counterclockwise to manifest a more wrathful protective energy.
As the practitioner turns the wheel, it is best to focus the mind
and repeat the Om Mani Padme Hum mantra. However, it is said that
even turning it while distracted has benefits and merits, and it
is stated in the lineage text that even insects that cross a prayer
wheel's shadow will get some benefit. Each revolution is as meritorious
as reading the inscription aloud as many times as it is written
on the scroll. The benefits attributed to the practice of turning
the wheel are vast. Not only does it help wisdom, compassion and
bodhichitta arise in the practitioner, it also enhances siddhis
(spiritual powers such as clairvoyance, precognition, reading others
thoughts, etc.). The practitioner can repeat the mantra as many
times as possible during the turning of the wheel, stabilizing a
calm, meditative mind. At the end of a practice session, there is
a Tibetan Buddhist tradition of dedicating any accumulated merits
that one may have gathered during practice to the benefit of all
sentient beings. Then chant Om Ah Hum three times.
