Flags of Prayers

It was My first time in Nepal when I amazed with these vibrant-colours flags hanging on above at most of all alleys in Kathmandu, and that was so beautiful to Me, to walk down under the shades of these colourful flags. Later then I searched and knew that these flags are called The Prayers Flags and soon I figured out the meaning behind it. Traditionally, the prayer flags come in a set of five. The five colours are arranged from left to right in a specific order: blue, white, red, green and yellow. The five colours represent the five elements and the five pure lights.

Blue symbolizes Sky and Space, White symbolizes Air and Wind, Red symbolizes Fire, Green symbolizes Water, and Yellow symbolizes Earth.
All-together arranged in a set to bring a harmony in life.

I was intrigued by this quote I found “Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is a daily admission of one’s weakness” – Anonymous – realizing this: Prayers in all of Its form and way, is a universal language, like love itself, that moves someone to be alive in peace and harmony.
