Each set of 10 flags are strung and ready to hang.

Prayer flags are meant to be placed outdoors by stringing or attaching them to the edge of a roof, between poles, on temples, between trees, and other places. By doing so it gives the wind the opportunity to move them. The wind is considered an expression of our minds, and the mental energy which activates them. When you see them your intention to pray for, and work for the welfare of others is rekindled. Thus, the wind like the mind, carries the blessings throughout the countryside, and across the world.

This is normal and provides a subtle reminder that all things are impermanent or temporary. This type of auspicious flags are given to as a blessing to married people, funerals, dignitaries, and even to business people around the world. To some people in the western countries unfamiliar with the Prayer flag tradition, they may at first seem a bit folksy, or humble looking. But, there is real power in activating the hearts and minds of people for blessing the world.
