Preparation

Before the arrival of the New Year, Tibetans engage in thorough cleaning of their homes and surroundings. This practice is to get rid of any negativity or bad luck that might have accumulated in the previous year. They also make offerings to the gods and ancestors to seek blessings for the upcoming year.
