Written on this prayer wheel is the Om Mani Padme Hum Mantra.
Additionally, the prayer is written on a rolled up scroll inside. As you
spin the prayer wheel you are releasing/saying the prayer/mantra.

The Om Mani Padme Hum mantra is a mantra of the Buddhist deity
Chenrezig who is considered the Buddha of compassion.
He is also known by the name Avalokiteshvara
in the ancient Sanskrit language of India.

People often desire a simple translation to this mantra.
Roughly it can be interpreted to mean: "Hail the Jewel of Consciousness which
has reached the heart's lotus." In other words, to have one's mind and heart become one.
However, these words, only scratch the surface of what the mantra represents.

It is said that all the teachings of Buddha are contained in this mantra.
Tibetan Buddhists believe that saying the mantra invokes Chenrezig's blessing.
Viewing the written form of the mantra is said to have the same effect.

A small card with the above explanation of the Om Mani Padme
Hum mantra will be included with your prayer wheel.
