Whether on trees, over temples or on mountain peaks, the colorful flags flutter in the wind everywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e The prayer flags have their origins in Tibetan Buddhism. The Tibetan term\"rlung rta\"means\"wind horse\"and reflects the symbolism of the flags. Because the mantras (prayers) printed on the flags are said to be carried up into the sky by the power of the wind.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Wind is considered an expression of the spirit and mental energy. So when the wind moves the prayer flags, it carries their prayers to the gods and to all living beings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e The colors of the prayer flags are blue, white, red, green and yellow. Each of the colors represents an element:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Blue:sky\u003cbr\u003e White:air\u003cbr\u003e Red:fire\u003cbr\u003e Green:water\u003cbr\u003e Yellow:earth\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e The five also stands for the center and the four cardinal points in Tibetan Buddhism. The wind horse (represents happiness, prosperity and our own life energy) can also be found on the flags. It is often framed on the prayer flags by four other animal symbols:Garuda (bird of the gods), dragon, tiger and snow lion. These four animals symbolize wisdom, strength, joy and confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e The prayer flags are also intended to remind people of the transience of life. In the mountainous regions of the Himalayas they remain hanging until they are completely weathered. Therefore, the flags are intentionally not sewn around the edges. This ensures that the edges will fray over time and the flags will sort of vanish in the wind.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Number of flags:\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AurelieHandicrafts","offers":[{"title":"12 cm","offer_id":43710571315464,"sku":"","price":7.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"14 cm","offer_id":43710571348232,"sku":"","price":9.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"18 cm","offer_id":43710571381000,"sku":"","price":12.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"24","offer_id":43710571413768,"sku":"","price":16.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"30 cm","offer_id":43710571446536,"sku":"","price":19.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/5567\/6486\/files\/il_fullxfull.4968118937_2k8d_c9368d16-18b4-4ae6-a18c-5f3b5e9f713d.jpg?v=1764630654","url":"https:\/\/aureliohandicrafts.shop\/en\/products\/tibeitsche-gebetsfahnen-33835","provider":"www.aureliohandicrafts.shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
