These six images are of the prayer book of my wife's great-grandmother, Elisabetta Petacci Gabioli Crescenzi; the little hand-written, hand-sewn booklet dates from 1900 to 1912. The last pages are used to write down the offerings made to the church after her death: "Offerings for mamma's soul." The list was kept by Evelina, her daughter.
Wonderful handwriting, the "d" is special.

Prayer flags are inscribed with auspicious symbols, invocations, prayers, and mantras. Tibetan Buddhists for centuries have planted these flags outside their homes and places of spiritual practice for the wind to carry the beneficent vibrations across the countryside. Prayer flags are said to bring happiness, long life and prosperity to the flag planter and those in the vicinity. The five colors represent the elements: yellow – earth, green – water, red – fire, white – cloud, blue – sky.
The prayer goes on for about 20 minutes, going through the usual motions of standing, kneeling and bowing to the east.
One of the highlights of walking the Kathmandu Valley Rim Trek in Nepal is an overnight stay at the sacred Thrangu Tashi Yangtse Monastery at Namo Buddha.
There are prayers flags everywhere, fluttering their messages of peace, strength, compassion, and wisdom on the wind to inspire all people.
