Ladakh - The Land of high passes
Ladakh is one of the few remaining areas of Himalaya where Tibetan Buddhism has thrived unhindered since early times. In the gompas, the buddhist monasteries, adult monks concentrate on meditation and religion while children living there attend school. The buddhist popular festivals are the best chance to live the traditions and the costums of the region.Ladakhis join the gompa with their typical dresses and jewels, meet up with friends, chat and watch the cham dance. Chang-pa and Drokpa tribes complete the Ladakh picture. Drokpa women wear fur costumes and headdress made with beads and flowers.

Citipati Tib.Dur-Bdag “ I Signori dei cimiteri “
Maschera in cartapesta e pasta di legno utilizzata nelle danze Cham
( Tibet-Nepal)
cm.60 x cm.56
“I Signori dei cimiteri” sono considerati dai tibetani spiriti benevoli.Sebbene i Citipati siano associati al Signore della morte,per i tibetani il sorriso dello scheletro non è fuori luogo,poiché la morte rammenta il concetto dell’impermanenza ed è insieme il preludio a una rinascita più favorevole.
Nelle danze mascherate che scandiscono il calendario buddhista, i danzatori-scheletro appaiono come pagliacci ,oppure, in alcune danze specifiche,come discepoli di Yama,il divinit&vagrave; della morte.
Oltre al grembiule di ossa ed alla ghirlanda di teschi,tipica delle divinità protettrici d’alto rango porta il caratteristico colletto a ventaglio.
La danse Cham est une danse interprétée par des moines bouddhistes portant des masques et des costumes représentant différents personnages du folklore et de la religion. Ces danses comprennent souvent des instructions morales. Ici, les « danseurs squelettes » symbolisent l’évolution de l’esprit vers l’éveil. Le squelette est un rappel de l’impermanence de toutes choses.
********** The Cham dance is a dance performed by Buddhist monks wearing masks and costumes depicting different characters of folklore and religion. These dances often include moral instructions. Here, the "skeleton dancers" symbolize the evolution of the mind towards enlightenment. The skeleton is a reminder of the impermanence of all things.
