Roof-top Prayers

10.08.05. Lhasa, Tibet. Just like prayer wheels, the Tibetans write prayers on prayer flags and every time the flag flaps in the wind it sends that prayer off to the gods. Thus the importance of placing your flag on a mountain top or near a river where there is lots of wind. It also sends the prayer for the person who put the flags there in the first place. A clever way to send more prayers!
