1. Om Mani Padme Hum

Om Mani Padme hum is considered the 6 true words, or the most common mantra in Tibetan Buddhism. A mantra or prayer in traditional Buddhism is spoken aloud or within the mind to help gather "emptiness" or a sense of nothingness. This means that we put away our ego and focus on our inner awareness. This practice is incredibly tough and requires years of training, but this mantra is believed to contain all of Buddha's teachings and knowing this mantra is being on the path to enlightenment.

About Prayer Flags

Prayer Flags are auspicious flags that contain images of deities, mantras, and prayers, which are traditionally believed to bring happiness, peace, prosperity, good fortune, health and victory over the obstacles. Prayer Flags are used to promote peace, compassion, strength, and wisdom.
