Phurba Gar’cham

Phurba Gar’cham

free-flowing hair – ‘phodka ling-ngé’

The phurba gar’cham is performed with free-flowing hair in the yogic style of Phod-ka Ling-ngé (phod ka ling nge). The style of Phod-ka Ling-ngé mirrors the sashes appended to the phurbas and emphasises the fact that one’s entire being becomes a phurba. Each step one takes in the dance is the stabbing action of the phurba.
