Prayer Wheels

Prayer wheels - called Mani wheels by the Tibetans - are devices for spreading spiritual blessings and well being. They are spindles wrapped with rolls of thin paper, on which are imprinted many copies of the mantra (prayer) Om Mani Padme Hum. The mantra is written in Sanskrit or Tibetan.

@anticontrolagent01 If Jesus was so powerful, why did he let himself get killed?

Because there's no such thing as death. Did he die? Of course not.

Neither will you!

Because Buddhism a magical cure to all maladies, or to somehow forever stall destruction and entropy. Because blessings aren't the point, and luck even less so. That's not the point.

[anticontrolagent01]

If they spread good luck and blessings why have they been run out of their country? Why is there so much poverty over there? Why was there a devastating earth quake and that devastating tsunami over there? Why didn't they explain why their gods didn't protect them? Why aren't their gods providing for them? Why is there so much destruction and wars in their regions and countries? Why isn't there prosperity,love,blessings,peac­e coming from the sand mandalas they've been doing there for years.
