Orthodox Prayer Rope / Chotki / Komboskini with cross and no tassel and counter150 knots Orthodox prayer rope, Handmade waxed komboskini with two small white beads every 25 knots with cross and a counter. Traditional knotted prayer rosary.Prayer ropes are used to help Eastern Orthodox Christians say the Jesus Prayer. \"Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God, have mercy upon me, a sinner.\"
This prayer rope is hand tied by me in a semi spaced way by black waxed rat-tail cord 1mm divided every 25knots by 2 white beads but I can use any other color instead.
Each knot is made with the knitting of nine crosses, which symbolizes the nine angelic battalions of God. According to tradition, the method of knitting a prayer rope was handed over by an angel of the Lord, because the first ones ruined the night by the devil so that monks could not pray with them. With the knitted crosses now the devil can not solve them.
I consider that it\'s very important not to step aside from the traditional method of prayer rope tying, as well as keeping their look and feel as close as possible to the old, Orthodox monastic models. We tie these prayer ropes, in the same manner, our desert fathers used to tye them and in each knot I say the Jesus gift for so many other memorable occasions :
• First communion• Baptism• Confirmation• Dedication• Easter / Christmas• Mother\'s Day• custom prayer ropes please feel free to contact me.

You will have it in 4 you for looking, good luck, and may God bless!!!MORE ABOUT \"The Jesus Prayer\", also called the Prayer of the Heart, the Prayer of a Single Thought, or simply The Prayer, is a short, simple prayer that has been widely used, taught and discussed throughout the history of Eastern Christianity. The exact words of the prayer have varied, from a simple form such as \"Lord, have mercy\" to an extended form: \"Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, the sinner.\"
The form most in use on Mount Athos is \"Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me.\" It is particularly used in the practice of the spiritual life known as hesychasm.
It is, for the Orthodox, one of the most profound and mystical prayers and is often repeated endlessly as part of a personal ascetic practice. The prayer is most reflective of the lesson taught by the parable of the Publican and the Pharisee; in which the Pharisee demonstrates the improper way to pray by exclaiming, \"Thank you Lord that I am not like the Publican.\" While the Publican in humility prays correctly \"Lord have mercy on me, the sinner\" (Luke 18:10-14). And likewise in the Gospels, Peter crying out as he sank into the sea, \"Lord, save me.\" In the Orthodox tradition, the prayer is said or prayed repeatedly, often with the aid of a prayer rope. It may be accompanied by prostrations and the sign of the cross. As such, it is used as a means of finding contrition and as a means of bringing about humility in the individual; hence the words \"the sinner\" are sometimes added as if no other sinner existed but the person praying (though there is no indefinite article in Greek, thus leading to some controversy about whether the translation in English should be \"the sinner\" or \"a sinner\"). Monastics often have long sessions praying this prayer many hundreds of times each night as part of their discipline, and through the guidance of an elder, its practitioner\'s ultimate goal is to \"internalize\" the prayer, so that one is praying unceasingly there-by accomplishing Saint Paul\'s exhortation to the Thessalonians to \"pray without ceasing\" (I Thessalonians 5:1)
