What customs do Tibetans have?

Tibetan customs refer to a series of customs and habits of the Tibetan people in China, including weddings, funerals, diet and other habits.

As an early culture before Indian Buddhism was introduced into Tibet, traces of ancient Zhangzhung culture run through all aspects of Tibet. From production to life, from folk customs to beliefs, there is a shadow of Zhangzhong culture everywhere. Religious activities such as worshiping mountain gods and turning around mountains all originate from Zhangzhong culture.

Many customs and lifestyles of our modern Tibetan compatriots are also inherited from the ancient Zhangzhong era. For example, the Tibetan compatriots' weddings and funerals, astronomy and calendars, medical literature, singing, dancing and painting, choosing a house and auspicious days for travel, driving away disasters and evil spirits, divination, and so on still follow the traditions of Yongzhong religion to a certain extent. . Tibetan compatriots also have many unique ways of praying: such as turning around the sacred mountain, worshiping the sacred lake, scattering wind horse flags, hanging colorful prayer flags, carving scriptures on stones, and placing mani piles (the tradition of this religion is engraved with the eight-character mantra of light: "Om"). "Mazhimou Yesalinde" stone pile), doing divination, offering torma plates, butter flowers and even using prayer wheels, etc., these are all the remaining customs of Yongzhong Bon Religion.
