English Definition | Shammism of Mongolia. A pre-Buddhist religious tradition in Mongolia similar to the Bon religion of pre-Buddhist Tibet, in which practice of animal sacrifice and offering of their blood to the gods and spirits was common. The Third Dalai Lama, Sonam Gyatso, (1543-1588) banned this practice and taught the virtues of Buddhism. |
