A video showing how to Take apart and reconstruct a Tibetan Buddhist Prayer Wheel yourself You can find more about our Prayer Wheels and all our other Dharma goods at www.pinklotus.co.uk Video by Gary Collier and Manju Lama-Collier
My hand-held prayer wheel came apart and now I am not sure if the scroll inside was placed back correctly. I am concerned because if the scroll is now set upside down then what was a clockwise rotation becomes a counter-clockwise rotation. Will this matter in terms of the efficacy of the prayer inside? (How would I know which is the top and the bottom of the paper scroll?)
Hi Noe. The prayers most like be the prayer of compassion which usually means the mantra Om Mani Padme Hum is repeated on the scrolls. They may be written in Tibetan or Sanskrit but either way the top part of the writing usually appears as almost a flat line so if you make sure the scroll is stood with the flat line to the top then your good to go
Hí, I have a mini wall prayer wheel, I had to wash it under flowing water, with detergent, the mantra inside, did they got hurt? I try to send a photo, if I can. Thank you greatfully. if you answer!
