Manjushri Mantra Stones
Click on the image above to dedicate a Manjushri Mantra Stone
This video, narrated in Chinese, features Manjushri mantra stones. These are stones carved with the sacred mantra of Manjushri, the Buddha of Wisdom. The mantra of any Buddha is basically the manifestation of the enlightened being in the form of sound. Therefore, Manjushri’s mantra embodies the special qualities of his transcendent wisdom. Offering of these mantras stones is likened to an offering of Manjushri-like speech to the Three Jewels.
Sponsoring and offering such stones has the benefit of gaining deeper insight into spiritual practice, improving one’s memory, critical thinking, creativity, language and the purification of negative karma related to speech. It also promotes the development of powerful speech that has a positive impact on others.
In the video we see mantra stones placed at the majestic Four-armed Manjushri statue in Kechara Forest Retreat, Malaysia. The more stones are offered there, the more benefit it brings to the person circumambulating and paying homage to Lord Manjushri. These stones are available at Naropa’s Cave in Kechara Forest Retreat and can be offered to the statue of Manjushri here just as you see in the video.

Wow! Great to know the effect of mantra stone, an interesting article to know the powerful way of offering and the blessing. I understand that mantra is a form of meditation that has existed for a long time but offering mantra stone to deity is something new to understand.
Thank you for the wonderful sharing and I am blessed to come across a beautiful message on offering mantra stone and the benefit behind it.
Mantra stones are a great way of making offerings to the enlightened beings. The mantra is the manifestation of the Buddhas in the form of sound and it also represents the Buddha’s speech. When we offer up mantras to the Buddhas, we are aspiring to be able to attain the qualities of the enlightened speech.
In addition to that, when we offer a mantra stone and place it around the Buddha statue, we will continue to generate merits for every single day the mantra stone is there. This is very powerful. In addition to that, it will also make the circumambulation done around the Buddha statue more effective because it is considered a Buddha itself. Hence, when there is 1 mantra stone at the side of the Buddha statue and we did 1 round of circumambulation around the statue, it will be counted as we circumambulated 2 Buddha statues. This is how powerful it is.
Those who offered the mantra stones will get merits too when someone circumambulated around the stone. So, when more people offer mantra stones, it will create a very powerful circumambulation path. This is the benefits of offering a mantra stone. We can offer the mantra stone on behalf of someone we love and it will help them alot.
In our daily life wisdom is very important, especially during this degenerate time. What we need is to create the environment to practice Dharma by making offering.
Offering of Manjushri mantra stones is one of the methods that enhance our spiritual journey
Great way to create connection with Manjushri and purify our negative thoughts. Thank you Rinpoche for creating this opportunity and making it so convenient for all of us in Kechara Forest Retreat. We should encourage more friends to do this and plant great seed with Manjushri.
