Tibetan Prayer Wheels
Tibetan prayer wheels are a Buddhist holy objects that were crafted in the land of Tibet a very long time ago. It is a spiritual tool intended to increase compassion in all beings by spinning it. It is made from a drum that holds the prayers or mantras inside and a handle with a rod that goes through the drum. A counterbalance weight is connected to the drum of a Tibetan prayer wheel by a string or chain so it can be spun using a small movement of the wrist.
King of Tibetan prayer wheels mantras
The Mani Mantra
The common mantra in Tibetan prayer wheels is the compassion mantra "Om Mani Padme Hum" and is written inside the prayerwheel many many times. The Buddhist belief is that every spin of the wheel sends out the amount of mantras or prayers that are inside it to all beings in all the realms. Taking the compassion mantra as an example, if the prayerwheel has 10 million mantras inside, then every spin sends out 10 million mantras of compassion to all, including the spinner.
Our Tibetan prayer wheels categories
Our Tibetan prayer wheels are hand made one by one from various hardwoods and from time to time some local woods we find and dry. The wheels are filled with mantras on microfilm and nanofim, so a very large amount of mantras can be placed in them to increase their power.
Being Buddhist practitioners, we came across the Tibetan prayer wheel in 2008 when H.E. Garchen Rinpoche came to Israel to give teachings. We were overwhelmed by the wooden Tibetan prayer wheel he had in his hand and decided to muster up both of our skills and construct one.
We did undergo study and asked many Tibetan Masters for permission to make them, consulted other prayer wheel makers for tips and info they were willing to share, and then, after months of study and consultations, we made our first Tibetan prayer wheel. Since then, we have made many more prayerwheels and shipped them worldwide.
