My father side migrated from place near Mansarovar, Tibet. We believe migrated sometime in 17th century, initially settled in Kashmir and later migrated to Punjab. We were always been Hindu. We are completely assimilated to local culture. I can say within 3 generation marrying to local familiesâand by absorbing local tradition completed transition.
Some part of family migrated to Afghanistan, Iran and POK during same period and they are converted Muslims now.
I donât see any ancestral culture or ritual of Mansoravr/Tibet in our home. What I think mothers always have influence in culture and tradition in family, so in our case it worked very well, or sadly we lost our old tradition/culture completely.
