Description
A set of 48 stickers displaying the national flag of Sri Lanka. The design consists of a gold lion holding a sword in its right paw, facing left, on a dark red background with four gold bo leaves (one in each corner).
The lion represents the Sinhalese people and bravery, while the bo leaves symbolise Buddhism and the four virtues: metta (loving-kindness), karuna (compassion), mudita (sympathetic joy), and upekkha (equanimity).
The lion is bordered by yellow, and on the hoist side, there are two vertical stripes, one green and one orange, representing the Tamil and Muslim communities respectively.
The yellow border represents unity and the protection of all citizens.
