Buddhist procession (Image number V.040, J.P. Mills Photographic Collection)

Buddhist priests in their yellow robes gather underneath a canopy. Buddhism is the official religion of the Maghs, but Mills noted a strong belief in evil spirits which are propitiated by ceremonies and offerings very similar to those he had seen among the Nagas.
