  •     The yellow border of the flag represents the teachings of Buddha in all directions.
  •     In the centre of the national flag is a mountain with snow lions, which represents Tibet.
  •     The 6 red bands are the original tribes called Se, Mu, Dong, Tong, Dru and Ra who were the ancestors of the Tibetan people. The blue bands are the sky.
  •     The sun shining in all directions signify the enjoyment of freedom, spiritual and material happiness along with prosperity of all beings in Tibet.
  •     On the slopes of the mountain stand a pair of snow lions which signify a spiritual and secular life.
    The glowing three coloured jewel represents the respect of Buddha, Dharma and Sangha.

    Replacement for a flag that was lost, plus buying a second. Nice size and easy to use in different ways. Delivery very efficient.
