About Prayer Wheel
Prayerwheels are used primarily by the Buddhists of Tibet and Nepal, where hand-heldprayer wheels are carried and turned bypilgrims and other devotees duringdevotional activities.
It usually bears the mantra "OM MANI PADMEHUM the sixsyllables mantra of the Buddha of compassion,Avalokitesvara.
The mantra is printed or carved onthe wheel exterior and printed mantra scroll on paper is kept inside.Accordingto Tibetan Buddhist belief, it is said thateach turn of the cylinder generates as much merit as the reading of the sutraof the formula enclosed within the prayer wheel.This belief derives from the Buddhist beliefin the power of sound and the formulas to which deities are subject.Formany Buddhists, the prayer wheel also represents the Wheel of the Law (orDharma) set in motion by the Buddha.
Theprayer wheel is also useful for illiterate members of the lay Buddhistcommunity, since they can "read"the prayers by turning thewheel. Prayer wheels come in many sizes: they may be small and attached to astick,and spun around by hand; medium-sized and set up at monasteries ortemples; or very large andcontinuously spun by a water mill. Prayerwheels at monasteries and temples are located at the gates of theproperty,and devotees spin the wheels before passing through the gates.
Om Mani Padme Hum
The mantra is in the Sanskritphonetic. It is the prayer of compassion for the well-being of all sentientbeings. Praying for self has its own benefit, but praying for all sentientbeings that are in need of the same prayer as oneself, multiplies the benefitas many times as there are sentient beings. This mantra is explained in manydifferent ways. But the basic motivation is always the same when we say, "OmMani Padme Hum we wishhappiness to all living beings.
Prayer WheelHistory
The prayer wheel lineage was brought to Tibet by the renownedeight century Indian Buddhist teacher Padmasambhava, and later practiced by thegreat Indian tantric Buddhist masters Tilopa and Naropa. Naropa's discipleMarpa later renewed the lineage in Tibet and passed it on to Tibet's most well-knownyogi, Milarepa. Since that time the Prayer Wheel has been passed on through acontinuous lineage of enlightened teachers, among these the great Kagyu masterKarma Pagshi, whose important works are quoted by most subsequent writers onthe subject.
Prayer wheels are usually filled with the mantraof Avalokiteshvara, the Buddha of great compassion. OM MANI PADME HUM So much of thespiritual power of the prayer wheel derives from the power of this sacredmantra that by connecting with the energy of the prayer wheel one is connectingwith an outer manifestation of unlimited enlightened compassion, and isawakening one's own highest potential - one's Buddha nature.The Prayer wheel is also a truly excellent wayto help harmonize and Feng Shui your environment, increasing the positiveenergy in your home or workplace. A number of Tibetan commentaries state thathaving a prayer wheel in a building makes that place become like the Potala -the pure land of the Buddha. People that own prayer wheels all agree thathaving one near them in their home feels wonderful. The prayer wheel's beautyand energy really does have a very clear and positive effect.
