Prayer Wheel Benefits Prayer Wheel Benefits

Turning a prayer wheel creates extensive benefits for all beings.

1. The Compassion Rays that radiate from the pure action of turning of the wheel calm our distracted mind and naturally relinquish all obstacles and negativities arising from a confused conceptual mental state. A very good mind calming practice that improve our mental stability and health, and reducing obstacles.

2. As a holy object with a tremendous merit field , the mani prayer wheel has the condition for the intended doer to overcome or attenuate bad karmic result and to eliminate the negative self-cherishing thought through virtuous accumulation.

If we constantly turn the Mani Wheel in a pure manner, year in and year out , we will accumulate great merit and form virtuous mental propensities that are filled with compassion and selfless thought of helping others. Our self-centred character MUST surely change. Then all our self-centred activities will be transformed to activities that benefit others.

Once this change becomes dominant and evidence, we now can aware that we are on the path of the Buddha to save all sentient beings.
