Called Lung-ta in Tibetan, Wind Horses are red (fire), yellow (eartl), green (air and wind), blue (space) and white (water) pieves of paper imprinted with Tibet's protector, the horse. Tibetans believe that Wind Horses use the wind to spread the teachings of the Buddha and offer blessings to the world.
