Qiangmu is an old form of song and dance currently prevalent in Tibet, which originated from Samye Monastery in the north of the Yarlung Tsangpo River. In order to celebrate its victory in the struggle with other schools of Tibetan Buddhism, the Great Master Luohuasheng compiled and rehearsed this kind of dance with mask and God’s clothes. On the inauguration ceremony, the dance made its debut. Soon, it spread all over the Yarlung, even to Mongolia.
