The Divinity Dance, also known as the Cham Dance, is an essential part of Tibetan Buddhism, which is believed to help purify the mind and ward off evil spirits. The Lamas, dressed in intricately designed masks and colorful costumes, are fully immersed in the ritual, their expressions reflecting intense concentration and devotion. The masks, each representing different deities, are meticulously crafted with intricate details and vibrant colors.
