This praying
wheel contains in itself the whole "ana b’koach" prayer.
In the inner
wheel, only the first letter of each word is represented ( aleph, bet, gimel,אבג
etc.
). On the outer wheel the last line of this prayer is engraved. It is the last
line that is spoken at the end of this prayer.
This wheel has
three main roles:
A: meditating. The prayer enhances the
power of our meditation and connects us to heaven.
B: to receive
answers or guidance on very important matters in our lives by short way ( one
letters group).
C: to receive
answers or guidance on very important matters in our lives regular way (five
groups).
Introduction
This wheel is
comprised of three parts: one part which rotates and two permanent parts.
1. body in the front.
2. rear cover.
3. wheel - between the body and the rear
cover (where the initials are found).
The wheel’s teeth
can be seen from both sides of the wheel, whereas, the groups of the letters can
only be seen through the window in the upper part of the body. The openings
allow both right-handed and left-handed users to turn the wheel comfortably. And
the window is created to show only one group of three letters at a time.
Important:
In order to get to know the prayer
wheel, it is important to know how many moves the wheel makes in order to
complete a full rotation. We can discover this by putting the first group of
letters (aleph, bet, gimmel,אבג
) in the window. (this group has a
vertical line engraved to its right) Then we start to move it with our fingers
until we see the last group (this group has a vertical line engraved to its left
tzadik, yod, taf,צית).
If the wheel gets
stuck, just press it with your finger or move it to the other side and it is
easily released. All wheels have been checked before delivery.
How we use the praying wheel
First use-MEDITATION
A. Each user must
find a position which is most comfortable and convenient for them. ( sitting or
in bed, etc.)
B. Hold the wheel
and turn it clockwise. The wheel must make at least three full rotations (read
the remark in the introduction). Continue
to rotate it until you feel that there is no more need.
C. The wheel must
remain in your hand until the end of the meditation. And once you have received
an answer you must look at the wheel and say—silently in your heart—"baruch
shem kvod malchutcha le'olam va'ed".
(translation "GOD BLESSED FOR
EVER").
An important note
before using the wheel for the next two purposes. If the wheels
owner want to assist to his friend or client he must remember that
only the person who need the answer should turn the wheel.
Second use –– RECEIVING ANSWERS AND SOLVING PROBLEMS. – short way
Think about a
subject that is of interest to you or a wish (only one). You have to phrase it
simply and concisely and write it down. Then you start to rotate it (clockwise)
for a long time until you feel that you can stop.
Write down the group of letters you see
thru the window. If you see two letters from one group write the whole group but
if you see two letters from two different group, you have to rotate it again.
From the group you received you will find your answer. If you don't reach any
reasonable answer, leave it and try later on. You can repeat the process for the
same problem only once in ten (10) days.
Third use –
RECEIVING ANSWERS AND SOLVING PROBLEMS
This is a
challenging task and demands patience and concentration.
You have to
concentrate on your issue and to write it down on a piece of paper in the most
accurate, clear, and concise way. Then you take the wheel and start to rotate it
clockwise. It should make at least one full rotation. Stop when you feel that
it’s time to stop. Look at the window and write down the group and the letters
of the group seen thru the window underneath your question. You must write
the groups according the order of the appearance. You repeat this procedure
until you have five (5) groups. If you see two letters from different groups
through the window you have to turn it again, but if you see two letters from
one group you can write the full group. It is possible that you have one group
two times or more. You are finished
when you have five groups. Now start to look and concentrate on the word
belonging to your groups. The best thing is to copy those words from your five
groups and then look and concentrate. Then start to write the words which you
feel are related to your question or problem. Start from the first group and go
forward according the order of their appearance. Remember that this work is made
by your feelings and not your brain. When you finish you have a group of key
words and from them you will make your answer. Look at those words and try to
write your answer.
In your answer
you will use more and different words but those words (from the groups) are the
key words and they will lead you to the solution.
The five
groups are:
1. The First
Group: Why I am asking or what I want to get and what I need to know about my
question.
2. The Second Group: Am I ready? Is it
good for me?
3. The Third
Group: How to analyze and plan? What is the best way for me, alone or with
partners? What factors should I take into my considerations?
4. The Fourth
Group: How do I reach my goal, step by step?
5. The Fifth
(and final group): The result.
At the end you
have 5 chapters which make a story. This is your answer or the solution to your
problem.
In case you don’t
find an answer it is possible to look for more words from the groups YOU CHOSE.
But if no answer was found and you feel stuck, it is recommended to rest for a
couple of days and then return to find the answer. If there is no answer you can
repeat the same procedure again but it must be after an interval of eighteen
days (18) between the last time you operated the wheel to find the answer.
If you have a new
problem to solve there is no need to wait eighteen days. It is forbidden to
use your emotions and brain but only feelings and senses. Do not press yourself
to have an answer. Let your heart to guide you. The key words should awake
your senses and guide you. It is also recommended to write the answer down.
