Popis: I interviewed Dbang lugs (1937-2o19), a herdsman in Rig smon (Daotanghe) Town, Gser chen (Gonghe) County, Mtsho lho (Hainan) Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Mtsho sngon (Qinghai) Province, PR China, at his home in February 2019. When he passed away at home on 12 May 2019, I returned to participate in the funeral activities. These included monks visiting and conducting rituals, and locals chanting ma Ni and performing smyung gnas 'fasting ritual' done for the deceased with the numbers reported to the deceased's family on the village WeChat group after the funeral.
