Description

This sacred chant bracelet reads “Om Mani Padme Hum” and is written in Rañjanā script, a derivative of Sanskrit found in Nepal. The literal translation is “Hail to the jewel in the lotus”. This is the ancient Tibetan mantra or prayer for realizing perfect wisdom and compassion. To simply hear or see the mantra, even without knowing its ultimate meaning, will bring positive karmic results. Travelers to Tibet find it everywhere — on prayer flags, prayer wheels, prayer stones and even on mountain sides. In Tibet, the mantra is commonly chanted as well as carved onto rocks along pilgrimage paths and printed on prayer flags and prayer wheels to increase its effects.
