Prayer Flags, Tibetan prayer flags: Westwind Prayer Flag Collection
Description
How It Began
In February of 1996, I (France) traveled to Nepal. Our group trekked for three weeks in the Solu Khumbu, also known as the Mt. Everest region of Nepal. The Nepali name for Mt. Everest is Sagarmatha, which means 'Mother of the Universe'.
Throughout this mountainous countryside prayer flags were everywhere; across suspension bridges, on mountain passes, on the roofs of monasteries and homes and at stupas. I was captivated by them. The flags' movement, colors and the intentions of those hanging them lit my heart with joy.
Eastern Light Illuminating Western Hearts
Ang Babu Sherpa, our head guide for the trek, was wonderful and so kind. We have become enduring friends, visiting each other whenever possible.
