Tibetan Demonology discusses the rich taxonomy of gods and demons
encountered in Tibet. These spirits are often the cause of, and
exhorted for, diverse violent and wrathful activities. This Element
consists of four thematic sections. The first section, 'Spirits and
the Body', explores oracular possession and spirit-induced
illnesses. The second section, 'Spirits and Time', discusses the
role of gods in Tibetan astrology and ritual calendars. The third
section, 'Spirits and Space', examines the relationship between
divinities and the Tibetan landscape. The final section, 'Spirits
and Doctrine', explores how certain deities act as fierce
protectors of religious and political institutions.
