Tibetan Buddhists for centuries have hung these flags outside their homes and places of spiritual practice for the wind to carry the beneficent vibrations across the countryside. 
Prayer flags are said to bring happiness, long life and prosperity to the flag distributer and those in the vicinity. The prayers printed on the flags bear traditional Buddhist symbols, protectors and enlightened beings - representing aspects of enlightened mind i.e. compassion, perfect action, fearlessness, etc. Displayed with respect, the flags impart a feeling of harmony and protection.
