Manidui, called "Duobang" in Tibetan, means erected stone. "Multi-gang" can be divided into "multi-gang" and "multi-gang". In the mountains, intersections, lakes and rivers all over Tibet, you can almost see altars made of stones and slates. Mani heap is also called "God heap". Most of these stones and slates are engraved with six-character mantra, insightful eyes, statues and various auspicious patterns, which are also masterpieces of Tibetan folk artists.

"Flower gangs prevent filth and disasters" are mostly located at the end of the village. The stone pile is huge and the upper part is stepped. There are scriptures to stop filth, eliminate disasters and pray for blessings, as well as grains, gold and silver jewelry and spears. Gravel blocks are piled into a pile with flags hanging on it. Every time you pass by, you will build some stones on the pile, and then walk around the "Mani Pile" three times clockwise, praying for God's blessing.

Mani stone carving style

Mani stone carvings are extremely rich in content, which can be roughly divided into four categories: animal gods, patron saints, scriptures and spells, six-character mantras, buddhas, bodhisattvas, monks and great virtues. The first two categories belong to early Bonism culture or even earlier primitive nature worship, while the latter two categories belong to Buddhism.

Mani stone carving techniques are diverse, such as line carving, relief, shallow relief, high relief, carving, coloring and so on. Mani stone carving is of great significance and unique position in Tibetan Buddhist art, with local and national characteristics. This is an ancient artistic expression, which combines Tibetan sculpture and painting.
