The book includes beautiful illustrations and photographs of prayer wheels and their intricate designs. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Tibetan Buddhism or looking to deepen their spiritual practice.A collection of material bearing upon the symbolism of the wheel and circular movements in custom and religious ritual.
