Among the Mongols (Classic Reprint) Synopsis

Excerpt from Among the Mongols

With regard to the Buddhism spoken of through out the work generally, and especially treated of in the eighteenth chapter, it should be remembered that this is not the theoretic system of that ancient religion, but the development of it which now obtains in the practical life of the present-day Mongols, namely, the old doctrines mixed up with extraneous beliefs and superstitions native and imported, and for which perhaps the best name would be Lamaism.
