Sikkim Chaamn Dance Art Print 3

In Cham dances, there are different types of skeleton characters. Citipati skeleton dancers perform in a male-female pair. The unity of two deities symbolizes the eternal dance of death and perfect awareness. Ging usually wears a simple skeleton costume and a plain skull mask. Gangre wears a skull mask decorated with ornaments, typically on the sides. The skull masks have five smaller skulls on top. The five skulls embody the victory over the emotional obstacles of doubt, restlessness, sluggishness, aversion, and desire.
