Tara Buddhist Prayer Flag

Tara (Star, or Drolma in Tibetan), goddess of protection and compassion, is the primary female deity in Tibetan Buddhism, and one of the most worshipped deities in Tibet.  She is saluted in this mantra as the noble, exalted liberator, as the swift and glorious liberator, and as the deity who grants success by removing obstacles and fulfilling good intentions.

The five flag colors represent the five elements: Blue (earth), White (water), Red (fire), Saffron (infinite space), and Green (cosmic winds). Enjoy the slow fading of color as they hang in the elements. To dispose of old flags with respect, please burn them.
