There is a difference between the Mundane and the Transcendental. If you purposefully confuse them, I will ignore you, you nihilist.
There is no Emotion, there is Peace. There is no Ignorance, there is Knowledge. There is no Passion, there is Serenity. There is no Death, there is the Force.

I'm guessing it's om mani padme hum in the Ranjana script, see:

although I'm not sure about the thing at the end.

Ah, you seem to be right. As long as those last characters don't change the meaning. Would there be a reason it's was burnt on the edges? I've only read the fpmt info on prayer wheels.

Are you certain the edges are burnt? To my poor eyes, that's what poor paper looks like when it has been worn down, as though inside a prayer wheel.AlexMcLeod wrote:Ah, you seem to be right.

Quite certain. There is still ash in spots, and one area where the fire was allowed to burn further than the rest.DGA wrote:Are you certain the edges are burnt? To my poor eyes, that's what poor paper looks like when it has been worn down, as though inside a prayer wheel.
