Images or the names of four powerful animals, also known as the Four Dignities, adorn each corner of a flag: the dragon, the garuda, the tiger, and the snowlion. The prayer tag "OM MANI PADME HUM" refers to "OM" which symbolizes your impure body speech and mind. "MANI" meaning jewel, symbolizes the factors of method—the altruistic intention to become enlightened, compassion, and love. "PADME" meaning lotus, symbolize wisdom. "HUM" is the seed syllable of Akshobhya—the immovable, the unfluctuating, that which cannot be disturbed by anything.
