Considering my current state of my mind is a mish-mash of tibetian chants, lucid dream-like imageries and the physical body still feels the cold rugged mountain air, I am happy that I have one post that I just have to write.
Prayer Flags~
A prayer flag is a small piece of cloth which has Buddhist prayers printed on them and are mostly in a set of 5 colours symbolising the 5 elements of nature.
The whole concept of having prayer flags on rooftops, street corners, near mani walls, on top of gompas or just about in the middle of no-where as silent reminders that 'you are not alone' and with each flutter the prayers are carried with the wind to spread peace and good will...just took my breath away:-)
Here are some photographs of these magical prayer flags spreading the prayers into the wind...

Enjoy your day!
