  • I've noticed your prayers are in English, does it have the same effect? Thank you for posting this, I've always wanted to make one.

  • @doomngloom4glory IMHO, yes. It's all about one's intention.

  • @doomngloom4glory IMHO, it's all about one's intention.

  • @jadesky65 Thanks. No, I'm fully vested into the Vajrayana lineage. Dialed into His Holiness the Dalai Lama big time *but* as you noted, I'm a contemporary Buddhist. 

  • it is my understanding that one's sincere intent is what's important. I didn't make this as a mockery nor with any hint of disrespect for the Dharma.

  • >> Religion makes people do mind-bogglingly idiotic things.

    I'm assuming you're talking about me.

  • Does this make them Curiously strong prayers?

  • Very cool as Tibetan Buddhist this has a application that even secular people would find cool. I filled my own prayer with Mani in a similar fashion. What I'm most amazed is the amount of room in the tin a lot of mantras can be fit in . Real kudos for this may it benefit all!

    Om Mani Padme Hum

  • hey thank you so much for the video, been searching a big prayer wheel for days on the net, but decided to make my own, (garage door roller is perfect). one note though, you need a central rod in the center of the mantras, called a life tree. and you don't have to print the heart sutra, just Om Mani Padme Hum already include all Buddha's teachings. thanks again

  • I should do this with a loop of some of my favorite soothing Bible verses. After all, there's an old gospel song that has the lyrics "when you hear a little prayer wheel turning", so it can't be all that of an unorthodox concept.

  • awesome! Thank you!

    

  • @XxPuNiShHeRxX I read somewhere that it would attract wrathful energy

  • cool
