The Lungta Tradition
NFTS - Chain of Compassion is a playful reference to the Prayer Flag (Lungta) tradition in Tibet. Flags designed with 5 auspicious animals (wind horse, snow lion, garuda, tiger & dragon) and special prayers are hung outside to send positive messages into the winds. This, as a way to clear obstacles and generate compassion for all sentient beings. Traditionally 5 colours are being used: white, blue, green, yellow & red. The colour white symbolizes compassion.
