Description
 
This unique work provides invaluable material related to the Tibetan Sacred Dances, which have met their doom with the destruction of monastic life in tibet. Nebesky-wojkowitz, during several periods of his field work in the Himalayas had studies these Buddhist temple dances. The existence of such choreographical manuals explains the uniformity in the performance of temple dances and the persistence of an unchanging tradition over long periods. Realizing that none of the Buddhist rituals referred in this book can be performed in the present day Tibet and with the rapid decline of the art of chams-dances, Dr de Nebesky-wojkowitz posthumous work becomes all the more valuable.
