Bring more compassion into the world with these vibrant mini prayer flags, which Tibetan Buddhists believe send prayers into the universe with every breeze. Try them as an untraditional Christmas garland, or share one with a dear friend to always keep your good wishes for each other present in your life. They tuck neatly into a greeting card.
Handmade from Himalayan lokta paper by Nepalese artisans in the five Buddhists colors with traditional drawings representing the eight auspicious symbols of Tibetan Buddhism. These are: the knot (inter-relatedness), wheel (Buddha’s teachings), lotus (perfection), conch (the call to awaken), umbrella (protection), victory banner (conquest of ignorance), fish (freedom to enlighten), and the treasure vase (the fulfillment of all wishes).
