    The fluttering prayer flag (Lungta) is colorful cotton cloth squires in white, blue, green, and red colors with images, mantras, and prayers on them and are connected along their top edges to a long string.
    Lungta (Tip: Lung = Wind, ta = Horse) a mystical Tibetan creature from pre-Buddhist times combines the speed of the wind and strength of the horse to carry prayers from earth to heavens. The word Lunta for a Tibetan itself means fortune or good luck. Tibetan believe that the prayers and mantras will be blown upward as offering to their deities and will bring fortune, happiness, and good health to all who hang them as well as their families, loved ones, neighbors, and all the people throughout the world including even enemies.
    Lungta represents peace, compassion, strength, and wisdom.
    Old Lungta usually is replaced with new ones annually on Tibetan New Year.
