This unusual antique Tibetan copper prayer wheel was used in daily prayer.
During prayer devotees recite Mantras (verbal or written prayers and innovations which are often repetitive) and simultaneously rotate the prayer wheel.
The energy and movement energizes the internal written mantras and thousands of prayers and blessings spin out the wheel to be released into the Cosmos and Universe.
The simpler ones are often very old and have been used extensively.As in all spiritual art the objects have an inner glow and beautiful energetic vibration.
