In Tibet, white is associated with milk and yogurt, givers of life, billowing clouds and snow lions. White is longevity; exemplified in White Tara, the bodhisattva of long life and in the white hair of the elderly, celebrating their power to defy the years. White is also purity, like newly fallen snow. Khatas, the scarves offered as greetings or shows of respect on auspicious occasions, are also white.

This symbolic horse appears printed on prayer flags or bits of paper to flap in or be tossed around by the wind on special occasions.
