Religion

Low production levels and contingency in hunting make the Lhobas highly dependent on nature. In their religious belief in which nature is worshipped, sky, mountain, water, tree, wind, rain and thunder are all endowed with human intelligence, and they communicate with humans through wizards and witches. For thousands of years, the Lhobas have gained food and fortune from nature and they pay homage to nature through pious worship. In a way, they have identified their spiritual belief with the high mountains and deep valleys of the Himalayas.

Now when another spring comes around quietly to Lhoba villages in the depth of the mountains, many beautiful government funded houses have already risen above the ground. Village schools have also been constructed to promote their educational levels. A brighter future is unfolding before every Lhoba's eyes.
