Tibetan prayer flags
Prayer flags are traditionally hung in all Buddhist countries in the Himalayan regions, such as Tibet, Nepal, and Bhutan. The positive energy of the images and mantras spreads into the air when the flags are moved by the wind, spreading goodness to every corner of the world and beyond.
The colors of the flags (blue, white, red, green, yellow) represent the five elements and the five Dhyani Buddhas, which symbolize (among other things) the inner and outer feminine and masculine energies in their purest form.

The eight auspicious signs

1. The precious umbrella protects us from all obstacles in this life—such as illnesses, contagious diseases, spirits, interference, and so on—as well as from the obstacles of the next life.
2. The golden fish. Fish swim freely in the ocean. In the same way, the golden fish swims fearlessly in the ocean of suffering and represents victory over suffering and the attainment of liberation.
3. The vase of wealth represents longevity, prosperity, and spiritual realization.
4. The lotus flower symbolizes purity, particularly spiritual purity, because, although it grows in the mud, it produces beautiful flowers.
5. The white conch shell. Its sound spreads in all directions and represents the victory of the teachings of the Dharma over ignorance.
6. The endless knot is the depiction of the interdependence of all phenomena, represented by the lines intertwined with one another. It also symbolizes the Buddha's infinite knowledge and wisdom.
7. The victory banner symbolizes the success of the Buddha's teachings, the victory of the Dharma over obstacles, and the triumph of knowledge over ignorance.
8. The wheel of Dharma represents the collection of the Buddha's teachings; specifically, it symbolizes the three primary cycles of teachings of the historical Buddha: the discourses, the results obtained from study, and practice.

Wherever these eight auspicious signs are present, there will be the dependent arising of increased auspicious virtue.
