At any festive event, dancing is not complete, and they also have ritual significance. For example, dancers perform Shana in huge black headdresses. At the same time, they hit the drums, thereby reminding people of 5 sins.

The Tongam dance is designed to expel evil forces. To do this, a dark scarf is thrown into the center, representing the coming of death, and then the dancers drive the impure forces there, into the center, and stab their hearts.

This ancient religion existed even before the arrival of Buddhist philosophy and other religious trends in the country. It contains elements of animism and shamanism - faith in the spirits of nature, ancestors, elements and worshiping them in the course of special rituals. There are very few Bon adherents now, and most of them live in the east. However, rare priests still perform special rituals in which Bon and Buddhist traditions are combined.

Religious diversity
The Kingdom of Bhutan is located in the south of the Asian region and borders the Chinese and Indian lands. The population is about 800 thousand people, and many of them are quite religious. At the same time, citizens are constitutionally guaranteed the right to independently choose a religious teaching and freely profess it - in the state, power and spiritual organizations are separated.
