Well-being or good luck. A horse riding on the wind, with a wish-fulfilling jewel on its back, is a common symbol of well being (khams) or good luck (lam 'gro). The term rlung rta is thus frequently used to refer to these concepts.

Wind horse. Erecting prayer flags (dar lcog) printed with an image of a wind-horse, or throwing to the wind small pieces of paper printed with the same image is one of the most popular ritual activities among Tibetans, and is performed to increase well-being or good luck. These flags and printed papers are commonly called rlung rta, though technically speaking rlung rta refers to the concept of good luck itself.
