moving,
This review is from: Tibetan Prayer Flags: Send Your Blessings on the Breeze with Other (Hardcover)
Shipped promptly, arrived as advertised. I have a set of my own and have given two as gifts. Each box comes with a book, a string of stamped flags, a string of blank flags and a marker. My most recent order went to a dear friend who lost her husband. She held a ceremony to scatter his ashes on the farm. The blank flags were laid out on a table, the book passed around and guests took time to say goodbye, and offer prayers and symbols from many different religions. We hung the flags from a tree and scattered ashes and prayers to the wind. What will you do with yours?

The flags are real and the book is great. The windhorse design conveys "the wide-reaching beneficial effects of the Buddha's teachings". You're actually getting real prayer flags that you might find in Tibet in this package. My only complaint is that 15 is too few. ;)

These were requested as a gift and were flown on an open upstairs porch. They were very festive looking even for the non Buddist among us.

I purchased this book / flag combination as a gift for a friend of mine. The book is utterly beautiful, with myriad stunning photos and quotes and a description of the history and symbolism of the flags. The flag string is nicely sized and consists of 15 flags. My problem is all of the flag panels are exactly the same, of a "Windhorse" design. I would have thought they would have included a variety of different designs and mantras. This fact should certainly be conveyed in the packaging or the description.
