In many primitive communities there is a taboo on mentioning
a man’s
name except
in certain
special circumstances, because his name is believed
to contain
within
it something
of himself,
which
would
be lost
and
wasted
if
his name were
uttered
without
first
taking
special
precautions.
This
belief
about
words
is widespread.
Among
the
more
primitive
and
the
uneducated,
it is universal.
A remarkably
matter-of-fact
practical
application
of it occurs
even
in the present
day
in the
Tibetan
prayer-wheel. If, thinks the Tibetan peasant, a prayer uttered once does some good, then the same prayer uttered many times will do more good. Therefore, since he assumes that the efficacy lies in the prayer as an entity in itself, he writes it round the rim of a wheel, and then frugally employs the water of a mountain stream to turn it all day long, instead of wastefully employing his own lungs and lips to say it again and again.
