Brass Frame Prayer Wheel
About our Prayer Wheel
The Brass Frame Prayer Wheel is a beautifully made sacred symbol of spiritual practice that consists of a copper wheel enclosed in a brass frame. Measuring 13 cm in height, it provides practitioners with a concrete tool for praying and meditating.
Its visual appeal is enhanced by the use of brass for the frame and copper for the wheel, which stand for authenticity and durability. People who turn the wheel participate in an age-old custom that is thought to call forth blessings and spiritual merit. The Brass Frame Prayer Wheel is an adornment for holy settings or a tool for introspection; either way, it facilitates spiritual growth and connection with the divine.
Introduction to Prayer Wheel
A prayer wheel is cylindrical on a spindle 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.
