Prayer Bracelet - The Jesus Prayer and the Prayer Rope

One of the most popular prayers that is prayed using the Orthodox Prayer Rope is the "Jesus Prayer".
The person saying the prayer says one repetition for each knot on the prayer bracelet or prayer necklace. It may be accompanied by prostrations and the sign of the cross, signaled by beads or metallic crosses strung along the prayer rope intervals. For more information on the "Jesus Prayer" go to wikipedia
