Description: | Ku Rgyamtsho tells a story about a grandfather and a grandchild. The grandfather wants to look for the place of the dead since his grandson is not able to take care of him. On th road he meets a sheep who takes him to the land of the dead. After this Ku Rgyamtsho relates how a woman with a goiter danced with the witches at night. | |
This man had learned all the rituals as the assistant of a priest@ who since passed away. While priests rely on the scriptures which they read during rituals@ helpers should know the rituals by heart and rely on their memory@ since they are expected to hand the priest the correct paraphernalia at the correct times and conduct appropriate movements accompanying the rituals. Thus@ this helper could recite rituals from memory. | ||

This man (son of jz17) helped prepare various rituals and helped jz18 with the offering to the water spirits. He did not perform any rituals himself. | ||
