| Abstract: | This collection contains audio of interviews from the Sanchuan region, in the south of Minhe Hui and Tu Autonomous County, Haidong Region, Qinghai Province China. All interviews are with huala, male villagers who regularly incarnate local tutelary deities, on such occasions as healing rituals, and the annual harvest festival. The huala interviewed here are mostly Mangghuer; the collection contains one interview with a Tibetan huala, called lha pa in the local Tibetan dialect. |
| Description: | The huala stated that three years prior to the interview he had become a huala. He also described how on the previous year's Nadun day, he was undertaking migrant labour elsewhere but had been possessed nonetheless. He described the feeling of being possessed by the deity. 法拉指出从三年前开始他成为了法拉，他去年到其他的地方打工，在纳顿节那天他开始颤抖而不能自控。他讲述了他被神附体时的感觉。 |
