THE DEVIL DANCE, ONE OF THE GREATEST FESTIVALS OF THE LAMA CHURCH 



This ceremony takes place in the spring and represents the chasing out of the Spirit of 

 Evil. The dance consists of a series of posturings by men and boys, who wear over their 

 heads fierce-looking animal masks (see text, page 525).
