June Family Sundays:
The wind horse (lungta) is a mythical creature that combines the speed of wind with the strength of a horse. Wind horses are responsible for carrying prayers from earth to the heavenly realms. The word for prayer flag in Tibetan is lungta, and prayer flags often feature images of wind horses. Let these majestic beings inspire you to create your own wind chime, featuring traditional woodblock print designs of the wind horse. As your chime flutters in the wind, envision your positive wishes ascending with the speed of a horse.
