If you have a Mani prayer wheel in your house, your house is the same as the Potala, ​​the pure land of the Compassion Buddha. ~ Lama Zopa Rinpoche

Heartwood Prayer Wheels is pleased to offer handmade prayer wheels built according to traditional Tibetan Buddhist specifications and made in accordance to the instructions of Venerable Kyabje Lama Zopa Rinpoche.

Also known as Mani wheels, our prayer wheels contain millions and even billions of the Tibetan Buddhist mantra "Om Mani Padme Hung." The mantras were carefully reproduced on microfilm to allow a large number of mantras to fit inside each prayer wheel. (The photo below shows how the microfilm mantras are reeled into rolls that fit inside the prayer wheel.)

Each prayer wheel is handmade from beautiful black walnut hardwood and includes stainless steel lifetime bearings to ensure smooth turning. The top of each prayer wheel is adorned with a swarovski lead crystal. The life tree mantra and the earth and sky mandalas inside the prayer wheel were hand-drawn by Venerable Kyabje Lama Zopa Rinpoche. The Mani mantra was written by His Holiness the Dalai Lama before being reduced to fit on microfilm. 


Turning a prayer wheel creates extensive benefits for all beings because the mantras inside the prayer wheel are the manifestation of the Buddha’s holy speech. As a holy object, a prayer wheel has tremendous power to eliminate the self-cherishing mind that keeps us from realizing perfect compassion and thus reaching enlightenment. 

Please fill out our online inquiry form to learn how long it will take to build your custom prayer wheel and how much it will cost to ship it to you. Each prayer wheel is custom-made to meet your needs and specifications.
