History of the Angelic Knot

A prayer rope is very spritual. It can be compared, in a way, to a Catholic's rosary, only the prayer is different. The prayer generally used with the Eastern Orthodox prayer rope, or Chotki, is the prayer of the heart, or, the Jesus Prayer. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner. The prayer rope is to aid the user in concentrating on prayer. Look inside for the history of the prayer rope, and a full photo demonstration of how to make your own prayer rope.
