Rinpoche asked us to do this — and we did it

Dear friends and Sangha,

Last year, H.E. Garchen Rinpoche made a request of us.

He asked us to create a prayer wheel that could reach more people — machine made, to his exact specifications, at a price that more beings could afford.

After 18 years of crafting prayer wheels one by one by hand, we took that request to heart. We self-imported a CNC machine directly from China — no easy feat — learned CNC machining from scratch, and programmed the machines ourselves. We tested every wheel until it met Rinpoche's standard. And a few weeks ago, we received word from the Garchen Buddhist Institute — Rinpoche approved our new HEGR prayer wheel.

The HEGR prayer wheel is Rinpoche's own design. Medium size, as he recommends for long spinning. Filled with 10 billion Mani mantras on nanofilm and 8 million Green Tara mantras on microfilm. Blessed rubber bands sent directly from the Garchen Buddhist Institute placed on every wheel.

Available now in four beautiful hardwoods — Cherry, Sapeli, Maple and Walnut — ready made and ready to ship.

If you have been thinking about adding a prayer wheel to your practice, or gifting one to someone you love — this is the one Rinpoche himself recommends.

"To craft as many prayer wheels as we can, while we still can."

If you know someone whose practice would benefit from one of Rinpoche's prayer wheels, please forward this post to them. Every prayerwheel that reaches a new hand is a blessing for all beings.

With love and prayers for the benefit of all beings,

Micha & Ayelet

Holy Land Prayer Wheels 🙏
