Blessed Vajrayogini Prayer Wheel, 10 inches

The tradition of spinning prayer wheels descends from Arya Nagarjuna, the eminent Buddhist scholar who is also the founder of the profound Middle Way school of Buddhist philosophy. The prayer wheel lineage was passed on through great Indian and Tibetan masters including Guru Rinpoche, Tilopa, Naropa, Marpa and Milarepa, and remains popular in modern times.

Inspired by traditional Tibetan prayer wheels filled with Mani mantras, this unique Vajrayogini prayer wheel consists of a cylindrical copper body mounted on a wooden handle. It is filled with hundreds of Vajrayogini mantras in the handwriting of the incomparable H.H. Kyabje Zong Rinpoche, printed on durable canvas.

It also contains a vintage protector knot blessed by H.E. Kyabje Lati Rinpoche, H.E. Kensur Jampa Yeshe Rinpoche and the Dharma Protector Dorje Shugden in trance of the Ven. Choyang Duldzin Oracle of Gaden Shartse Monastery. The exterior of this handmade copper prayer wheel is ornamented with carved OM MANI PADME HUM mantras and other Tibetan-inspired motifs.

This prayer wheel has been blessed and consecrated with sacred and powerful Vajrayogini rituals performed by Ven. Zawa Tulku Rinpoche and Ven. Geshe Jangchup Gyaltsen, dissolving her body, speech and mind into the mantras within.

Prayer wheel practice is a powerful method of purifying negative karma, accumulating merit and blessing yourself, the environment and all sentient beings. The cylinder, along with the mantra roll it contains, can be kept turning clockwise with a slight rotation of the wrist. This activates the prayer wheel, generating tremendous merits and distributing exponential blessings and positive wishes for all beings.

Every spin of the wheel is akin to reciting the amount of mantras it contains, and this Vajrayogini prayer wheel has the additional benefit of creating a strong connection to this powerful Tantric Buddha.

This limited edition prayer wheel is highly recommended for anyone who aspires to receive Vajrayogini's potent practice and for those already initiated into her mandala. Available in multiple sizes and in copper and antique finishes.
