Lungdhar

Lungdhar
Lungdhar (Wind-Fahnen) in Ura-Tal, Bumthang.
Diese hohen Gebetsfahnen stehen an Bergflanken oder Höhenrücken. Sie werden für einzelne Personen errichtet und sollen Glück, Schutz etc. bringen. Sie sind mit dem Windpferd (lungta) und individuellen Texten, Name und Alter des Auftraggebers bedruckt. Das Aufstellen ist eine größere Zeremonie, für die zuvor ein Astrologe befragt wird.

Lungdhar (wind flags) in Ura Valley, Bumthang.
These tall prayer flags can be seen on hillsides and ridges. They are erected for specific persons to give good luck, protection etc and are printed with the lungta (wind horse),individual texts, name and age of the person. Putting them up involves astrologers and lots of ceremony.

HFF, folks, and may the flags bring continued good health to you!

In the thumbnail they appeared to be tall poplars, but they are much more wonderful than that! Super shot, Gudrun, and thank you for the information.
