The Mani Wheel
The Mani Wheel, Boudha Kathmandu, Nepal. Watercolor 76x56cm on Arches 300g rough. This small hand-held wheels are the most common for spreading spiritual blessings and well being. People carry them around for hours, and even on long pilgrimages, spinning them any time they have a hand free. The cylinder, along with the mantra roll it contains, can be kept turning with a slight rotation of the wrist, thanks to a weighted cord or chain.
