The article presents a brief description of the Mosuo minority, living in southern China, in Yunnan and Sichuan provinces, and the position of the ethnic group in modern China. The research mainly focuses on their religion, Daba shamanism, which influenced all spheres of life and culture of the Mosuo. Daba is one of the symbols of the Mosuo people, which to this day contributes to the formation of their identity and cultural heritage. According to some Chinese researchers, Daba is a primitive religion and originated before our era. It reflects the worldview this Mosuo minority and contains their value system. Over time, due to the close proximity of Yunnan province to the Tibetan Autonomous Region, the Mosuo beliefs have absorbed elements of Tibetan Buddhism. However, Daba, as a religion, did not cease to exist, instead, it united with buddhism to serve the Mosuo people. The article describes what spirits and deities are worshiped by the Mosuo, their place in the Daba religion and significance for people's lives. It also tells us about the intermediaries between people and gods - shamans Daba, the rituals they perform and the ritual attributes they use. The Mosuo religion is unique, because it has not only survived to this day, but also has a great influence on the habits and customs of the Mosuo people. Despite external factors, the religion of Daba remains distinctive to this day. For centuries, it has served to unite the Mosuo, which, in turn, through the canons, continuously pass on their history and culture to their descendants. Consequently, Daba shamanism has a tremendous influence on the worldview and religious views of the Mosuo people. Thereby, Daba is undoubtedly a unique example of the ancient religion and a cultural value of China.
本文简要介绍了生活在中国南方,云南和四川两省的摩梭人,以及该民族在现代中国的地位。研究主要集中在他们的宗教达巴萨满教,它影响了摩梭人的生活和文化的各个领域。达巴(Daba)是摩梭人的象征之一,时至今日,摩to人已成为其身份和文化遗产的形成者。根据一些中国研究人员的说法,达巴是一种原始宗教,起源于我们时代之前。它反映了这个摩梭族的世界观,并包含了他们的价值体系。随着时间的流逝,由于云南省靠近西藏自治区,因此摩梭人的信仰吸收了藏传佛教的元素。但是,达巴作为一种宗教并没有不复存在,而是与佛教联合起来为摩梭人服务。本文介绍了摩梭人崇拜的神灵,它们在达巴宗教中的地位以及对人们生活的意义。它还告诉我们有关人与神之间的中介-萨满祭司达巴,他们执行的仪式以及他们使用的仪式属性。摩梭人的宗教是独特的,因为它不仅生存至今,而且对摩梭人的习惯和习俗有很大的影响。尽管受到外部因素的影响,达巴的宗教至今仍很独特。几个世纪以来,它一直使摩梭人团结起来,而摩梭人又通过大炮不断地将其历史和文化传承给他们的后代。因此,达巴萨满教对摩梭人的世界观和宗教观产生了巨大的影响。因此,大巴无疑是古代宗教和中国文化价值的独特典范。
