The Buryat culture is rich and deeply rooted in Mongolian traditions. Representing the largest indigenous group in Siberia, the Buryats are primarily settled in the Republic of Buryatia, Russia. Embracing their Mongol heritage, they practice Tibetan Buddhism along with indigenous Shamanic rituals.
Buryats are traditionally nomadic herders known for their extraordinary equestrian skills. They mostly rear horses, sheep, and cattle. Hunting and fishing are also key aspects of their traditional lifestyle. The Buryat cuisine is delightful, with dishes majorly centered around meat and dairy products, often consumed with tea.
Buryat language, being part of the Mongolic languages group, further strengthens their bond with the Mongols. Their epic tales, throat singing, and traditional instrumental music, called Morin Khuur, genuinely portray their cultural spirit.
One of the notable celebrations of Buryats is Sagaalgan, their New Year, which coincides with the lunar calendar. It's an occasion full of rituals, prayers, and family feasts, and it emphasizes their strong sense of community.
The Buryats also have a deep reverence for nature, symbolizing the sky, earth, sun, moon, and mountains as sacred elements. Shamanism plays a significant role in this context, often intertwined with their Buddhist practices.
Despite modern influences, the Buryats valiantly maintain their unique cultural traditions, providing the world with a rich tapestry of cultural diversity.
While some cultures turn to war and others to worldly knowledge, this culture places its trust in the only constant throughout its history - the divine. Spirituality is the only way forward in a harsh and uncaring world.
