From 9 AM to 2 PM, I participated in the celebration, which was held in #1, Wa shur Village, Thang mgo&nbsp;(Tanggu) Town, &#39;Ba&#39; rdzong (Tongde) County, Mtsho lho (Hainan) Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Mtsho sngon (Qinghai) Province, PR China.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Film length: 30 minutes, 47 seconds</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Photographer, writer, editor: Bkra shis rgya mtsho&nbsp;བཀྲ་ཤིས་རྒྱ་མཚོ།&nbsp;&nbsp;(Zhaxijiancuo&nbsp;扎西尖措) using an iPhone 12 Pro Max.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>The main character&nbsp;</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Stag ma (Stag phrug thar) was born in 1944 in #3 Brigade Klu lung Village. When he was 18, he married Rin chen mtsho&nbsp;(Ri mtsho, b. 1942)&nbsp;and moved to #1&nbsp;Brigade Wa shur Village.&nbsp;They had 3 children:&nbsp;Dga&#39; rab rdo rje&nbsp;(b. 1964), Rdo rje sgrol ma (b. 1968), and&nbsp;Phur ba skyabs&nbsp;(b. 1980).&nbsp;Stag ma&nbsp;lived with his younger son&#39;s (Phur ba skyabs) family. Stag ma is my (Bkra shis rgya mtsho) maternal uncle. He was a locally famous hunter.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Eighty-year celebration</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Historically and locally, there were 4 celebration parties during a person&#39;s life &ndash; a birthday party, a 3-year-old haircutting party, a wedding party, and an 80-year celebration. On the day of the last celebration, on the 1<sup>st</sup>, 3rd, or 13th&nbsp;day of the 1<sup>st</sup>&nbsp;lunar month, the celebrant gets up in the early morning, shaves, cuts their hair, washes their face, and puts on such new clothes as a blue sash, a white shirt, a white felt or fox-fur hat, a traditional lambskin or sheepskin robe, and Tibetan-style leather boots. They prepare to welcome visitors before sunrise when neighbors send New Year gifts.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Parents tell their children to ask the celebrant for good wishes and longevity blessings. Tea bricks, white silk scarves, Tibetan cakes, and&nbsp;<em>rgyal bo</em>&nbsp;bread are typical gifts. The 8-year-old typically exchanges a silk scarf with those bringing gifts, signifying, &quot;I give my age to you, and may you live 100 years.&quot;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Traditionally, neighbors, close friends, sworn brothers, and close relatives attended this celebration.

Neighbors came to help fry bread, prepare dumplings and Tibetan cakes, and send oral WeChat invitations to the village WeChat group, the tribe&#39;s tantric monk groups (a son is a tantric monk), and certain relatives in other villages. Thirty-four monk and tantick monks all from the same tribe joined the party to chant from 9:30 AM to 2 PM. The host family gave each monk 100 RMB, a tea brick, and a white silk scarf. All attendees, except the monks, presented gifts of a tea brick and white scarf. An estimated 400 attendees were at the celebration. Attendees gave cash gifts ranging from 50-2,000 RMB and such items as bottles of liquor, Tibetan cakes, tea bricks, Tibetan woolen items, hand prayer wheels, and traditional scripture volumes. The total cost of the celebration was approximately 40,000 RMB.

The total cost of the celebration was approximately&nbsp;63,580 RMB.&nbsp;The value of the gifts was about 31,250 RMB.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Part-Two</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Wedding Celebrations&nbsp;</strong></p> <p>There are two types of local marriage&nbsp;patterns: arrangement and romantic marriage.&nbsp;In the past, most children followed their parents&#39; marriage arrangements. Parents thus had a significant obligation to choose suitable spouses for their children, particularly the bride for their son, and hold auspicious wedding celebrations showcasing the family&#39;s position in the community. Parents considered their children&#39;s marriage before the age of fifteen.&nbsp;Important concerns in choosing their children&#39;s spouses included pure bones (no body odor) and family protector deity (between different tribes, offerings to different protector deities were thought to bring misfortune).&nbsp;The last taboo concerns the harmony of zodiac animals. Therefore, according to traditional divination: the following pairs conflict, tiger-monkey, hare-rooster, dragon-dog, snake-pig, horse-rat, and sheep-cow. The harmonious pairs included pig-sheep-hare, dog-horse-tiger, rooster-cow-snake, and rat-dragon-monkey.&nbsp;</p> <p>On the wedding day, a woman was chosen to offer tea in front of the bride at the yak enclosure, and another woman took&nbsp;the bride&rsquo;s horse&nbsp;reins.The contemporary version of this is a woman who touched the bride&#39;s hat and tied a white-silk scarf to the driver&#39;s side car mirror of the car&nbsp;&nbsp;with the bride).&nbsp;This woman was chosen&nbsp;according to the zodiac animal concerns mentioned above.&nbsp;</p> <p>Parents investigated the background of the bride&#39;s family and chose an eloquent matchmaker from their relatives or community to ask the bride&#39;s parents and their elder relatives if they agreed to their child&#39;s marriage. Both sides&nbsp;consulted&nbsp;local religious leaders to divine or astrologers to examine zodiac-animal compatibility.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>On the wedding day, relatives participated in congratulating the new couple. Meanwhile, relatives pitched a new black yak hair tent for the couple, collected items, especially furniture, and gave the new couple yaks, sheep, and horses.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Recently, most marriage partners have chosen free-choice marriage.&nbsp;On this wedding day in the early morning, after chanting the&nbsp;ritual of family deities to expel misfortune by the family ritual&nbsp;specialist, Rang gsal,&nbsp;the groom and 3 escorts visited the bride&#39;s home and soon returned. The bride, with 14 escorts, then came to the groom&#39;s home. A singer sang a traditional song to welcome the bride and escorts. After&nbsp;several minutes, the escorts and the groom&#39;s side women engaged in several rounds of antiphonal singing.&nbsp;When escorts were ready to leave, the family host gave each 200 RMB in cash and a white silk scarf.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Part-Three</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>After the wedding</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>After the wedding celebration, family members and some neighbors busily returned items borrowed from neighbors. On February 10, 2022, four escorts (including the bride&#39;s father and the bride) brought the&nbsp;dowry&nbsp;to her family and relatives, who gave her such items as lambskin robes, sheepskin robes, Tibetan wool robes, 2 cloth robes, 3 sashes, 3 traditional shirts, a 2g gold necklace, gold earrings, a 3g gold ring, silver necklace, diamond necklace, and shoes. The bride&#39;s clothes were put on a line in the enclosure to display to neighbors and participants. The bride&#39;s gifts such as fruit, Tibetan cakes, and biscuits were divided among participants.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>The bride&#39;s father offered liquor three times to the air. He praised all deities in his family and said, &quot;I&rsquo;m so glad our children do not choose external spouses - particularly different religious believers. At contemporary schools, some children choose to marry partners from different ethnicities. I have nothing to say about my daughter&rsquo;s choice. I definitely agree with this wedding.&rdquo;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Since this day, neighbors and relatives invited the bride to their home and gave presents. Most families gave 100-300 RMB.&nbsp;According to local custom, the neighbors and relatives first invited the bride. Afterward, she could visit their families randomly.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Acknowledgment</strong></p> <p>My cousins, Blo bzang dpal ldan and Bdud mgon skybs, and my maternal uncle (Smin grol) provided information that helped complete this document.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Tibetan Terms</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&#39;ba&#39; rdzong&nbsp;འབའ་རྫོང་།&nbsp;</p> <p>&#39;bum phyug skyid&nbsp;འབུམ་ཕྱུག་སྐྱིད།&nbsp;</p> <p>&#39;od gsal&nbsp;འོད་གསལ།&nbsp;</p> <p>bde chen&nbsp;བདེ་ཆེན།&nbsp;</p> <p>bde skyid &#39;tsho&nbsp;བདེ་སྐྱིད་མཚོ།&nbsp;</p> <p>bdud mgon skyabs&nbsp;བདུད་མགོན་སྐྱབས།&nbsp;</p> <p>bkra shis rgya mtsho&nbsp;བཀྲ་ཤིས་རྒྱ་མཚོ།</p> <p>blo bzang dpal ldan&nbsp;བློ་བཟང་དཔལ་ལྡན།&nbsp;</p> <p>blo bzang tshul khrims&nbsp;བློ་བཟང་ཚུལ་ཁྲིམས།&nbsp;</p> <p>bsod nams sgrol ma&nbsp;བསོད་ནམས་སྒྲོལ་མ།&nbsp;</p> <p>choe bzang sgrol ma&nbsp;ཆོས་བཟང་སྒྲོལ་མ།&nbsp;</p> <p>chos thar rgyal&nbsp;ཆོས་ཐར་རྒྱལ།&nbsp;</p> <p>dang po&nbsp;དང་པོ།</p> <p>dar legs&nbsp;དར་ལགས།&nbsp;</p> <p>dbang kho&nbsp;དབང་ཁོ།&nbsp;</p> <p>dung dkar&nbsp;དུང་དཀར།&nbsp;</p> <p>gle ba&nbsp;གླེ་བ།</p> <p>ho thog&nbsp;ཧོ་ཐོག</p> <p>hwo thog sum dbrag&nbsp;ཧོ་ཐོག་སུམ་དབྲག</p> <p>klu lung&nbsp;ཀླུ་ལུང་།&nbsp;</p> <p>lha snang rgyal&nbsp;ལྷ་སྣང་རྒྱལ།&nbsp;</p> <p>mgo log&nbsp;མགོ་ལོག&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>mtsho lho&nbsp;མཚོ་ལྷོ།&nbsp;</p> <p>mtsho sngon&nbsp;མཚོ་སྔོན།&nbsp;</p> <p>ngag dbang smin grol&nbsp;ངག་དབང་སྨིན་གྲོལ།&nbsp;</p> <p>nyi ma lha mo&nbsp;ཉི་མ་ལྷ་མོ།&nbsp;</p> <p>phag mo&nbsp;ཕག་མོ།&nbsp;</p> <p>rang gsal&nbsp;རང་གསལ།&nbsp;</p> <p>rde&#39;u dkar&nbsp;རྡེའུ་དཀར།</p> <p>rdo mo&nbsp;རྡོ་མོ།&nbsp;</p> <p>rgya bo&nbsp;རྒྱ་བོ།</p> <p>rta kho&nbsp;རྟ་ཁོ།&nbsp;</p> <p>sgrol ma yag&nbsp;སྒྲོལ་མ་ཡག&nbsp;</p> <p>skal bzang sgrol ma&nbsp;སྐལ་བཟང་སྒྲོལ་མ།&nbsp;</p> <p>skal khao&nbsp;སྐལ་ཁོ།&nbsp;</p> <p>smin grol&nbsp;སྨིན་གྲོལ།&nbsp;</p> <p>tA re&nbsp;ཏཱ་རེ།&nbsp;</p> <p>thang mgo&nbsp;ཐང་མགོ།&nbsp;</p> <p>tho si&nbsp;ཐོ་སི།</p> <p>tshe dpal mkhar&nbsp;ཚེ་དཔལ་མཁར།&nbsp;</p> <p>tshe ring sgrol ma&nbsp;ཚེ་རིང་སྒྲོལ་མ།&nbsp;</p> <p>tshul rnam&nbsp;ཚུལ་རྣམ།&nbsp;</p> <p>wa shur&nbsp;ཝ་ཤུར།</p> <p>ye shes mtsho&nbsp;ཡེ་ཤེས་མཚོ།&nbsp;</p> <p>yum skyabs rgyal&nbsp;ཡུམ་སྐྱབས་རྒྱལ།&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Chinese Terms</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Chaidamu&nbsp;柴达木</p> <p>Hainan&nbsp;海南</p> <p>Lifan&nbsp;力凡</p> <p>Qianjang&nbsp;钱江</p> <p>Qinghai&nbsp;青海</p> <p>Rongwie&nbsp;荣威</p> <p>Tanggu&nbsp;塘谷</p> <p>Tongde&nbsp;同德</p> <p>Wuyangbentian&nbsp;五羊本田</p> <p>Zhaxijiancuo&nbsp;扎西尖措</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>5 July 2023&nbsp;</p>
