To quote the words of Jiddu Krishnamurti, a famous spiritual leader, "I think it is essential sometimes to go into retreat, to stop everything that you have been doing, to stop your beliefs and experiences completely and look at them anew, not keep on repeating like machines whether you believe or don’t believe. You would let fresh air into your minds."

Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow mindedness.

How mistaken is the view which sees buddhas as great and sentient beings as small,
When, in the state of sameness, there is neither great nor small!
How deluded we have been in clinging to the dichotomy of great and small!
We confess this transgression within the expanse of supreme bliss, which is sameness!

How debilitating is the view which dualises this life and the next, when the mind of enlightenment is free from birth or death!
How deluded we have been in clinging to the dichotomy of birth and death!
We confess this transgression within the deathless, immutable expanse!

- Bardo Thodol (Tibetan Book of the Dead)

Mind is the forerunner of all actions
All deeds are led by mind, created by mind
If one speaks with a corrupt mind, suffering follows
As the wheel follows the hoof of an ox pulling a cart

Mind is the forerunner of all actions
All deeds are led by mind, created by mind
If one speaks or acts with a serene mind,
happiness follows
As surely as one’s shadow

- Buddha

Prayer Wheels are an important and fascinating aspect of Buddhist culture in Bhutan. The wheels are covered with positive mantras that are spread in all directions as the wheel spins, generating peace and harmony for humans, plants, and animals living nearby.

The more positive messages inscribed on the wheel, the more powerful it is believed to be. With this in mind, some prayer wheels are covered in microfilms which contain billions of tiny mantras to maximize the spread of positivity.

Come experience prayer wheels in person and much more! WellnessBhutan.com 🙂
