The Tibetan prayer wheel combines mechanical movement with spiritual practice. A cylinder mounted on an axle, it typically contains sacred texts or mantras inscribed on paper. By turning it, the devotee symbolically recites the prayers it contains. The circular motion thus becomes a form of religious action. The circle and rotation are associated with the continuity of the world and the circulation of teachings. This object also allows us to explore the connections between artisanal techniques, devotional practices, and cosmological representations.Lire la suiteroue de prière (tibétaine)
