Buddhist practitioners spin these large prayer wheels or small hand wheels while meditating upon or chanting the mantra, simultaneously receiving its many blessings. Prayer wheels of various sizes, also called maniare used for the meditation of Om Mani Padme Hum as well. Modern seekers like to buy rings with the mantra engraved on them because it is said that even the simple act of gazing upon the mantra will bring about the same benevolent effects. The Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra is meant for healing rejuvenation and nurturance.It is repeated over and over again to invoke the loving and unconditional qualities of compassion. Whereas the Gayatri Mantra is meant for purification and spiritual guidance.
While its energy protects and guides the initiates a mantra re-links consciousness to its deeper and more abiding nature and repetition of the mantra constitutes Japa, the practice of which develops concentration that leads to a transformation of awareness. It is also chanted while smearing Vibhuti over various parts of the Body and utilised in Japa or Homa (havan) to get desired results. This mantra is addressed to Shiva for warding off untimely death. By reciting this mantra, the effect of the curse of Daksha, which could make him die, slowed, and Shiva then took Chandra and placed it upon his head. and also Sati during the time when Chandra suffered from the curse of Prajapati Daksha.
