Abstract: A na53 mʑi53 person falls accidentally and is panicked. The rə53 hĩ53 'soul' leaves the body and the person becomes lethargic. It is nearly always the patient's mother who calls the soul back, if she knows the correct chant. Five thousand na53 mʑi53 Tibetans live mostly in Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, PR China with Han and Nuosu (Yi). The ritual is commonly done for children less than ten years of age, though anyone may lose their soul. The chant is presented along with a brief discussion of na53 mʑi53 cosmology and beliefs concerning the soul.
