Five Personal Gods of the Individual (Tibetan: go wai lha nga). The image presents the Five Gods at the center and four corners of the composition. (See detail images of all of the figures).In the Bon religion this group of figures are the Five Gods of the Head (Tibetan: go wai lha nga) and born with each and every human being. They are located on the four sides of the head and above. It is believed that the Five Gods are born with and accompany each individual human on their life journey. They function as personal gods governing health, wealth, luck and good fortune for each person. This belief system is indigenous to Tibet, Mongolia and Central Asia and the Five Gods are tolerated in Buddhism and some small ritual offering texts can be found. The Bon religion presents a richer understanding of the Five Gods along with marriage ceremonies incorporating the Five as necessary elements.In Tibetan Buddhism the arrangement of the gods is different: Mo Lha - Female God, located at the left armpit of an individual. Srog Lha - Life God, located in the heart of an individual. Po Lha - Male God, located at the right armpit. Yul Lha - Regional God, located at the crown of the head of an individual. Dra Lha - Enemy God, located at the right shoulder.According to the 5th Dalai Lama it was Traba Ngonshe (1012-1090) and Guru Chowang (1212-1270) who first introduced the Five Personal Gods into a Buddhist context. In modern times it was the 5th Dalai Lama (1617-1682) that wrote a ritual text and further popularized the practice. The 4th Panchen Lama, Lobzang Tenpai Nyima (1782-1853), also wrote a liturgical text for the Five Personal Gods. The first known Sakya text was written by Dagchen Kunga Lodro (1729-1783) who clearly states that his writings are based on the text of the 5th Dalai Lama. He also mentions very clearly in the first few lines that the group of protection gods belong both to the Bon and Buddhist religions.Jeff Watt 9-2012Bibliography:1. 5th Dalai Lama text: lha lnga'i gsol mchod bsod nams dpal bskyed, Volume 14, Pages 476-481 (gsung 'bum). tA la'i bla ma 05 ngag dbang blo bzang rgya mtsho birth 1617 death 1682.
