Rejuvenate Your Weary Soul with MeditationRings
The world today can seem like it's in great pain. Confusion and uncertainty sometimes feel like they're everywhere around us. And all this have taken a toll on our heart, mind, body, and soul. The tribulations of this world are nothing new to us and since millennia, we have been nourishing ourselves back to well-being with prayer and meditation. Looking within and looking up, we have found a spirituality that helps us to become a better and stronger person every day.
However, achieving this wellness goal through meditation is easier said than done. It is a fact that the mind simply refuses to quiet itself when all you want is tranquility and calmness. The “monkey mind” wanders around to revisit the self-referential hurtful thoughts or focus on the uncertainties of the future. This is where the meditation ring plays a crucial role. A meditation ring is an effective instrument that channels your complete concentration and makes you mindful.
What is a Meditation Ring?
The meditation ring is inspired by the ancient concept of Tibetan Prayer Wheels. A cylindrical shaped wheel engraved with a prayer or a mantra is posited on a spindle. This wheel is turned clockwise with unyielding concentration of speech and mind. According to the ancient Tibetan Buddhist beliefs, the prayer wheel physically manifests the “wheel of Dharma” as taught by the Great Buddha. Turning of a prayer wheel resembles turning the Dharma wheel that can facilitate the process of chanting the prayers creating an effect similar to reading the scriptures.
Prayer wheels are turned to accumulate merit or good “karma”, purify bad karma and negativity, and ultimately gain wisdom. With each meditative and concentrated turn of the wheel brings the practitioner closer to attaining enlightenment which is considered the cardinal achievement of human life.
Why do you need a Meditation Ring?
Your goal may not be as soaring and arduous as enlightenment. Nevertheless, meditation is your pathway to achieving that elusive inner peace, mindfulness, and the necessary compassion to lead a happy and fulfilling life. Meditation is the science and art of actively training your mind to increase its awareness as well as boost overall psychological well-being. Ancient Buddhist texts establish the importance of spinning a prayer wheel for its power of creating and encouraging a peaceful environment both within and outside.
When you spin a meditation ring, your mind slowly delivers itself from the confusion of the physical world and consciously directs you to follow the pace of your breathing. The act of spinning creates a harmonious relation between the acts of turning your fingers and mimicking your breathing. This cognitive practice deepens the sense of calm and serenity. It reduces anxiety and releases stress both emotionally and physically. This benefit of stress reduction can be felt immediately in your daily life.
The spinning motion aids your mind to arrive at the circularity and completeness that can be accomplished within. All you need to do is take some time off from your frenetic daily schedule. Sit down in silence and start to rotate the outer spinning bands. Every focused and relaxed spinning motion will ease your frazzled nerves and confused mind to immerse you into the depths of joy and tranquility.
The structure of a Meditation Ring
A meditation ring consists of a primary main band in its base and is encircled by one or more spinning rings. The patterns of both the main band and the encompassing rings are diverse. Sterling silver is the most common element used in these rings. However, there is no dearth of versatility in design as gold, brass, copper, semi-precious or precious stones can also be available according to the preferences of the buyer. The metals and gemstones are designed on both the band and the main spinner.
Whether floral, glyph or paisley and square patterned – meditation ring can be exquisitely diverse in their design with multiple accent rings and spinning rings. The design and the mantra or spinning message of a meditation ring can be customized as per your requirement. Meditation rings also beautifully double as wedding bands.
